Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cook the rice following pack instructions, then drain in a sieve. Spread the rice out on a baking tray to steam-dry - it needs to be as dry as possible before adding to the sweet potatoes.
- Meanwhile, toss the sweet potatoes with 2 tbsp olive oil and the cumin. Season and spread out in a large roasting tin in a single layer. Roast for 30 mins until tender and coloured, but not too crisp. Meanwhile, put the sunflower seeds in a cup, cover with water and set aside to soak while the sweet potatoes cook.
- Put the remaining olive oil in a small saucepan set over a low-medium heat. Add the onion with a pinch of salt and cook, stirring often, for 5 mins. Add the ginger and chilli, and cook for 5 mins more until very soft. Set aside.
- Drain the sunflower seeds, pat dry on kitchen paper and tip into a large mixing bowl with the sweet potatoes. Crush gently using a masher or the back of a fork. Add the rice, onion mixture, half the basil and seasoning to taste. Continue to crush together until the mixture is well mixed but not smooth. Form into 4 x 10cm diameter patties. Can be made up to 48 hrs ahead - keep covered and chilled until needed and allow to sit at room temperature for 15 mins before cooking.
- Put the patties on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. Roast for 30 mins until warmed through and beginning to brown.
- Make the salsa in a bowl by combining the avocado with the lime juice, remaining basil and seasoning to taste. Heat the grill to medium and toast the cut sides of the burger buns for 1 min or until golden brown. Top each bun base with a couple of lettuce leaves. Put the patties on top of the lettuce, top with a spoonful of salsa, a few sweet potato crisps and a scattering of mustard cress. Press on the toasted bun tops and serve with any leftover crisps on the side.

Steps:
- For cooking:
- Wash and pat your sweet potatoes dry. Cut the sweet potatoes into small 1-inch cubes. Roast the sweet potato cubes with 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 1 tablespoon granulated garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Place onto a sheet tray and roast at 375° F for approximately 40 minutes, remove from the oven, and cool slightly.
- In a food processor, add the roasted/cooked sweet potato, tamari soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce; pulse to combine. Add the onion and chickpeas and pulse until fully combined, periodically stopping the food processor and using a spatula or wooden spoon to move the mixture around. Mix just until the chickpeas and onion are fully incorporated; look for the consistency of mashed potatoes. Do not overmix.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the oats, walnuts, chia seeds, and flaxseed meal.
- Remove the sweet potato mixture from the food processor and fold into the dry ingredients. Measure out 1/3 cup of the mixture at a time and, using your hands, form into round burger-shaped patties.
- In a medium sauté pan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the patties and sauté for about 4 minutes per side, or until they are warmed through and golden brown on each side.
- To serve, place the patties on toasted buns, if desired, and add your choice of toppings. I love avocado, kale, and Worcestershire sauce.
