We believe everything that's delicious is made with love and from scratch. So we've decided to make these fluffy and warm vegan BBQ Lentil Buns with Dibble Chipotle Mayo, for you to avoid idle hands. Even if they do come out with a few imperfections, that's the beauty of making dough from scratch! Each bun will be unique and the process is so satisfying, you'd want to give yourself a pat on the back when they're cooked. We've made it easier too by creating the BBQ marinade with Dibble Chipotle Mayo,reducing the need for additional ingredients. Our take on vegan BBQ Lentil Buns is one that will impress your friends, and yourself!
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, soy sauce, mirin, vinegar, Dibble Chipotle Mayo, tsp of salt and pepper.
Add in the lentils and coat thoroughly.
Add the coriander, green onions, sesame seeds, mix consistently and let it rest for 5 minutes.
In a medium pan on medium heat, add the oil, shallots, 1/2 tsp of salt for 2-3 minutes then add the garlic and cook for another 2 minutes or until aromatic.
Add the marinated lentils and cook for 3 minutes.
Whisk together the corn flour and water then add to the pan. Cook for another 3 minutes to make the lentils have a slightly sticky texture.
Set aside the lentils in a small bowl to cool.
Dough
In a small bowl, add the avocados, garlic, oil, salt, pepper, lime juice and mash together with the back of a fork.
Add the coriander and tomatoes and thoroughly mix together.
To serve
Add the flour, yeast, baking powder and sugar into a large mixing bowl, mix thoroughly and make a well in the middle.
Add the water and oil and slowly combine the ingredients together until a dough is formed.
Lightly dust a clean surface and knead the dough for 10 minutes or until it's smooth.
Lightly dust the large mixing bowl, place the dough inside, cover it with a tea towel and let it rest for 20 minutes.
Dust a clean surface and rolling pin and roll out the dough into a rectangle until it's about 1/2 a centimetre thick. Fold the dough in half and repeat another 2 times.
Using the longest edge of the rectangular dough, gently roll it forming an even cylinder.
Divide the dough into 16 even pieces.
Using the palm of your hand, squash the flat surface of the dough piece so it forms a circle then using a lightly dusted rolling pin, roll out the dough to form an even circle about 10cm wide.
Place the dough circle in your left hand, add a tsp of the filling and using your left hand fingers to guide, use your right index finger and thumb to pleat the dough edges until the bun is enclosed.
Cook the buns in a steamer over boiling water for 12 minutes or until light and fluffy.
Enjoy!

I am vegan, and have been for a while, I still remember the mayonnaise and sour cream. I used to consume before I was vegan and I would choose Dibble even if I wasn't vegan, it's just that good.
The mayonnaise is creamy and just the right amount of tart and the sour cream also creamy and actually some sourness, how many sour creams have no sourness (many).
The cheese sauce is just brilliant, cheesy, works really well when grilled and makes an excellent cauliflower sauce, I can't recommend enough.
Sooooooooo good!!!!! I found it melts best on higher heat or for a longer time, it just melts so good and tastes amazing. Perfect for literally everything from toasted sandwiches to pizza and nachos!!
This is the best melty vegan cheese ever.
It has a great taste with none of the nasties. It melts perfectly on anything you would use dairy cheese on. Love it
The cheese sauce tastes like cheese, melts well and is very handy to use in the squeeze bottle. I have had nachos with the sauce and will soon be using it on a pizza.
