Method
Pulse the mushrooms in a food processor, until more finely chopped. Transfer to a bowl.
Grate zucchini/courgette and drain in kitchen towel. Add to the mushrooms.
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large pan over a medium heat and add the shallot. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until tender.
Add mushrooms and zucchini/courgette and cook also until tender. Transfer to a bowl and add the cheese and quinoa. Season with salt and pepper and allow to cool completely.
Then stir in the egg and breadcrumbs, cover and refrigerate for about 1 hour until firm.
Heat the remaining oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Shape the mixture into six 1-inch-thick patties and cook in batches until golden brown, about 3 minutes each side.
To serve, spread yoghurt garlic sauce onto the buns, top the burgers with sliced red onion and tomato, and sandwich in buns.

This quinoa burger tastes delightful with a side of sweet potato discs and a crunchy fresh salad.
