Makes 6 burgers
1. Cook the bulgur wheat and lentils according to packet instructions.
2. Meanwhile, sauté onions over a low-medium heat in a teaspoon of oil or a splash of water until soft and lightly coloured.
3. Stir in the fennel seeds and vinegar and keep warm.
4. Next, pulse together the burger ingredients until they can clump together. The mixture should still have texture and flecks of kale but able to be formed into burger shapes. If the mixture seems too wet, add breadcrumbs or ground almonds a tablespoon at a time. If it seems too dry, add water a tablespoon at a time.
5. Make 6 burgers out of the mixture and grill with a little cooking spray until coloured, just a couple of minutes on each side. Alternatively use a cast iron pan or regular frying pan.
6. Serve in buns, topped with onions and your favourite garnishes.
