1. Place all the ingredients except the mushrooms in a food processor and blend until smooth to make a marinade.

2. Brush the mushrooms with the marinade, cover with clingwrap and chill for 1 hour.

3. Heat a grill until smoking hot, then grill the mushrooms until tender and caramelised, about 4–5 minutes on each side, turning once. Baste with the remaining marinade.

4. Toast the burger buns, top with vegan burger mayo, lettuce, tomato slices, red onion slices and dairy-free cheese slices. Add the mushrooms and a spoonful of green hummus.
