Burger & Avocado Salsa

Cook Fry’s Plant-Based Home Style Burgers according to pack instructions until golden and crisp (air fryer works particularly well).
Allow burgers to cool slightly, then cut into bite-sized chunks.
In a bowl, mix red onion, avocado, lime juice, and sliced chilli. Season to taste and refrigerate until needed.

Vegan Cheese Sauce

Melt coconut oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add cornflour and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
Gradually whisk in almond milk and coconut cream. Simmer for 2 minutes until smooth and slightly thickened.
Remove from heat and whisk in nutritional yeast, grated vegan cheese, and turmeric until melted. Return to low heat if needed and season to taste.

To Serve

Arrange corn chips on a platter or individual plates.
Drizzle generously with warm cheese sauce, scatter over burger pieces, and finish with spoonfuls of avocado salsa.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
