• Cut the sweet potatoes in small cubes and transfer on one half of a non-stick baking sheet.
• Peel and slice the onion and set aside.
• Add the chickpeas to the other half of the baking sheet.
• In a liquid measuring cup with a pour spout, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, paprika, cinnamon, cayenne, salt, and pepper and mix well.
• Pour half of the dressing over the sweet potatoes and chickpeas and mix with your hands until well-coated. Keep the chickpeas and sweet potatoes separated as much as possible.
• Scoot the chickpeas toward the sweet potatoes and add the onions to the baking sheet. Make sure everything is spread out evenly.

• Add the parsley, cilantro, and remaining dressing and toss to combine.
• Top with dried cranberries, if using.

Steps:

• Place sweet potato on a microwave-safe plate in a single layer, cover and microwave on high for about 4 minutes or until just tender.
• Transfer to a bowl, add chickpeas and mash until almost smooth.
• Add the couscous, garam masala, garlic, egg salt and pepper.
• Using damp hands, form into 8 patties about 3/4 inch thick.
• Heat the oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat and cook patties 3-4 minutes each side or until golden and heated through.
• Combine yoghurt and chutney in a small bowl. Serve patties with mango yoghurt and salad leaves.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
• In a large bowl, microwave chickpeas for 1 minute, or until softened.
• Peel the cooked sweet potato, and add it to the bowl of chickpeas, along with the garlic, chili powder, and salt. Mash until chickpeas are finely mashed. Add cornmeal and scallions, and set aside.
• For the barbecue sauce: In a medium-size bowl, combine tomato paste, water, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt. Mix to combine.
• Add barbecue sauce to the mashed chickpea mixture and mix until thoroughly combined.
• Using a ½ cup (120 ml) measuring cup, portion 5 patties from the mixture. Place onto a lightly greased parchment-lined sheet pan.
• Bake for 40 minutes, or until firm and browned, flipping over halfway through.
• Serve with the remaining barbecue sauce and favorite fixins.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• To make the yogurt sauce, stir together the yogurt and mint in a bowl and cover and chill until needed.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Half fill a medium saucepan with water and bring to the boil. Add the sweet potato wedges and cook for 4 mins then drain through a colander and return to the saucepan. Pour over the oil, tossing until lightly coated then season with ground black pepper.
• Scatter the potatoes onto a small baking tray and roast for 15 mins. Take out of the oven and turn over, then cook for a further 10 mins or until tender and lightly browned.
• While the chips are cooking, make the burgers. Put the onion, garlic, nuts and spices into a food processor and add lots of freshly ground black pepper. Blitz until as smooth as possible. Add the chickpeas, flour, coriander and lemon juice and blitz until the mixture comes together to make a thick paste. It shouldn't be too smooth as you are looking for some texture to give the burgers a bit of bite. Form the mixture into 4 balls and flatten into burgers, just under 2cm/ 3/4in deep.
• Heat 1 tsp of the oil in a medium non-stick pan over a low heat and cook the burgers on one side for 5 mins. Add the remaining 1 tsp of oil to the pan and turn over. Cook on the other side for a further 5 mins or until nicely browned and cooked throughout, keeping the heat low, so they don't burn.
• Divide the salad leaves, tomatoes, cucumber and spring onions between two plates. Add the burgers, chips and mint sauce, plus a couple of lemon wedges for squeezing. Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the salad and serve.
