Begin making the burger patties

  • Peel and finely slice the shallots

  • Add the shallots to a bowl and leave to cool for a few minutes

**Assemble and cook the patties **

  • Lightly oil your hands and shape the mixture into 4 plump patties, on a lined baking tray

**Prepare the remaining ingredients **

  • Halve the bread rolls, drizzle cut side with olive oil and toast in the frying pan over high heat until golden brown
  • Shred the pak choi
  • Halve the carrot vertically, and cut the exposed side into thick ribbons with a peeler
  • Mix the sriracha and ketchup in a small bow
  • Mix the carrots and pak choi with 1 tbsp of the mayo to coat
  • If needed, briefly reheat the fries in the oven with the patties

Build the burgers
