Our Fable meaty mushrooms bring plenty of texture and are packed with umami – but add to it a simple, spicy, smoky, tomato-ey BBQ sauce and you’ve got a brioche bun full of burger heaven.
Ingredients
BBQ sauce:
- 1 tbsp grapeseed oil
- 1 banana shallot, peeled and finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled and finely sliced
- ¼ tsp ground ginger
- ¼ tsp ground allspice
- ¼ tsp mustard powder
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
- ¼ tsp smoked paprika
- 210g passata
- 100g apple cider vinegar
- 120g Demerara sugar
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce or coconut aminos
- 1 tbsp golden syrup
- ¼ tbsp freshly ground black pepper
- ½ tbsp salt
To finish brioche buns:
- Grapeseed oil, for frying
- 320g Fable
- Reserved BBQ sauce
- 4 toasted brioche buns (sub vegan brioche buns)
Method
- To make the BBQ sauce, heat the grapeseed oil in a medium pan over moderate heat. Add the garlic and shallots and cook until softened, approx. 7 minutes. Add the spices and continue to cook for 2 minutes, before adding the passata, vinegar, sugar, Worcestershire sauce and syrup. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook for 20 minutes, then transfer the mixture to a blender. Blitz for 30 seconds, stopping to scrape down the sides of the jug. Pass the mixture through a fine mesh sieve, discarding the pulp in the sieve. This sauce stores well covered in the fridge until needed.
- To finish the brioche buns, heat the oil in a pan and lightly fry the Fable over moderate heat until golden and crispy. Add the BBQ sauce and gently reheat. Serve the mixture on toasted brioche buns.
- Top with items of your choice: jalapenos, coleslaw, pickled red cabbage and wild rocket will all work well.
