Burger Burger Panko Mushroom Burger with Charred Broccoli

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 230°C. Prep mushrooms. Squish each mushroom down firmly with the palm of your hand to flatten slightly. Toss mushrooms in a bowl with soy sauce, honey and garlic. Sprinkle flour and panko crumb mix onto two separate plates and whisk eggs in a bowl.
2. Finish mushrooms. Coat each mushroom in flour, shake off excess. Dip into whisked egg and shake off excess. Lastly, coat mushrooms in panko crumb mix, pressing to adhere. Place on a lined oven tray, drizzle generously with olive oil and bake for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through cook time, until golden and crisp.
3. Cook broccoli. Heat a drizzle of oil in a fry-pan on high heat. Add broccoli and do not move it until you can see it beginning to char. Turn broccoli and allow it to char on the other side. Add a splash of water to deglaze pan, then add butter, garlic and almonds and cook for about 1 minute, until starting to brown. Season to taste. Set aside and reserve fry-pan.
4. Prep burger buns. Heat a knob of butter in reserved fry-pan on medium-low heat. Toast buns, cut-side down, for 2-3 minutes until golden.
5. Serve buns filled with chilli jam, aioli, mushrooms, cheese, spinach, onion and pesto. Serve with charred broccoli.
