Preparation
- Making the Buns:
Dissolve yeast and birch sugar in water and set aside in a warm place for 15 minutes. Then, in a bowl, combine flour, water, egg, and dissolved yeast. Knead the dough until smooth. Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rise for about an hour. Shape the risen dough into 5 buns, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, cover, and let rise again in a warm place. Brush the buns with egg yolk mixed with sesame seeds and a little water. Place the buns in the oven and bake at 180°C for about 25 minutes.
- Making the Burger:
Mix all the ingredients together to form a sticky mixture. If the mixture is too dry, add a little olive oil. Shape the mixture into 5 burgers and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 200°C for about 20 minutes. After this time, flip the burgers over and bake for another 10–15 minutes.
- Assembling:
Peel the avocado, remove the pit, and mash the flesh with a fork. Add lemon juice, chopped onion, olive oil, mix well, and refrigerate for 1.5 hours. Cut the buns in half and lightly toast them at 200°C until golden brown. Spread avocado paste on the prepared bread, place a burger on top, add arugula, a slice of tomato, and cover with the other half of the bun.
