Meals in Minutes – Spicy Plant Burger

We’re just coming to the end of Week 18 on campus and our Residences Ambassadors have been getting stuck in presenting another episode of Meals in Minutes!

Meals in Minutes is our take on our very own cooking show, where students interact either through social media or put themselves and their friends forward to being on the show. Short videos are made beforehand to highlight which ingredients are needed for the chosen healthy dish so everyone can make it, wherever you are! The best thing about getting involved in the show is you get to eat all the food after… What more could you ask for?

This week’s episode was held on Thursday 23rd January hosted by RA, Siobhan. The dish which was made with the help of our culinary expert, Chef Malcolm, was a very tasty Spicy Plant Burger. Chef Malcolm guided us through the process, teaching the viewers how to make the dish. The burger was made with a kidney bean base, herbs and spices and lots of other tasty ingredients (which can be found below). The full 23 minute video can be found on our Facebook page, @Brunel.RAs.
