The walnuts in this recipe add a little crunch and the brown rice takes the place of bread crumbs, making these savoury vegetarian burgers a great gluten-free meal.

  • Shape the mixture into about 12 burgers and pan fry them with a little oil. Alternatively, you can grill the burgers on the barbecue.
