• Ginger - 1 teaspoon, grated
• Soy Sauce - 1 tablespoon
• Sesame Oil - 1 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a pan, heat the sesame oil over medium heat and add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant.
2. Add the chopped bok choy to the pan, stirring for about 5-7 minutes until wilted and tender.
3. Stir in the soy sauce, salt, black pepper, and chopped green onions. Cook for another 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
4. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked bok choy mixture with cornstarch and chickpea flour. Mix until well combined to form a sticky patty mixture.
5. Shape the mixture into two equal patties.
6. In the same pan, add a little more sesame oil if needed and cook the patties over medium heat for about 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
7. While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the whole wheat slider buns.
8. Assemble the sliders by placing a patty on each bun, adding pickled cucumbers on top, and drizzling with sriracha sauce if desired.
