Vegan bacon: for the marinade, mix together the soy sauce, sunflower oil, agave syrup and smoked paprika in a bowl. Cut the sheets of rice paper into long strips. Soak the rice sheets one by one in a bowl of warm water. Remove the sheets from the water after 1 minute, once they have softened. Stick two strips together and leave to drain thoroughly.

Baked mushrooms: Bake the mushrooms in the pan you just fried the eggs in for a total of 6 minutes over a high heat, until the mushrooms have softened and lost most of their moisture. Season with salt and pepper.
Onion-tomato chutney: heat sunflower oil in a pan and fry the red onion for 8 minutes until it begins to glaze. Add the tomato puree and agave syrup to the pan and stir well. Fry for 2 minutes. Add the cherry tomatoes and simmer for 4 minutes on medium heat. Add the red wine vinegar and let it reduce for another 3 minutes to a syrupy chutney. Remove from the heat and set aside.

Build your burger: Cut a bread roll in half and place the burger on the cut side of the bottom of the roll. Brush the burger with a tablespoon of onion-tomato chutney. Place a quarter of the watercress on top, followed by a teaspoon of mustard, slices of jalapeno, a slice of old cheese, a teaspoon of mayonnaise, 2 slices of vegan bacon, two tablespoons of fried mushrooms and a fried egg.
