Step 1: Cook the lentils in boiling water for approx 10 minutes until they are tender and split open. Drain and let cool.
Step 2: Heat Oven to 400F. Peel and slice the butternut squash, coat with a little oil and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes. Once cooked allow to cool and then slice into small chunks Step 3: In a large mixing bowl add the lentils, butternut squash, finely sliced spring onions, crushed garlic, spices, flour and coriander stalks. Gently mix together with your hands and when fully combined shape into 4 burgers and place them on a plate in the fridge for at least half and hour.
