Prepare the teriyaki filling
Finely slice the spring onions, reserving some for the topping.
Peel and finely chop the ginger and garlic. Peel and finely slice the onions. Deseed the chili peppers (optional) and chop finely.
Heat some sesame oil in a large pan. Fry the spring onions, ginger, garlic, onions and chilli over a medium heat for 3-4 minutes.
Add the soy sauce, brown sugar and lime juice, mix well. Stir in the dissolved starch and allow the sauce to thicken, stirring constantly.
Add the cauliflower and chickpeas and simmer for 5 minutes in the teriyaki sauce.
Preparing the cocktail sauce
Mix all the ingredients for the cocktail sauce in a small bowl.
Season to taste with salt, pepper and paprika powder.
Assemble burgers
Place the bottom half of the burger buns in a baking dish. Top each bun half with a slice of vegan cheese.
Spread the cauliflower teriyaki filling on top. Pour over the cocktail sauce and sprinkle with spring onions.
Place the top half of the bun on top and press down lightly. Brush with sesame oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Baking and serving
Place the casserole dish in a preheated oven at 200 °C fan oven.
Bake the burgers for 15 minutes until the buns are slightly crispy and the filling is hot.
Enjoy the teriyaki sliders straight from the oven - perfect for parties or as a special finger food! Optionally sprinkle with additional spring onions or sesame seeds.
