Nutburgers Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°C.
• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and knead well.
• Pinch off 16 portions of mixture, roll them into smooth balls, and with wet hands press out the balls into patties.
• Arrange patties on a lightly oiled baking tray and place into oven until they dry out a little and darken slightly (around 20 minutes for my oven).
• (Burgers can now be refrigerated or frozen until needed).
• Pan-fry in oil until hot.

Steps:

• Grind onion in food processor.
• Add nuts and oats, pulse to chop.
• Add everything but the oil and process more, but not too finely.
• Add liquid as needed. Mixture should be moist but not loose.
• Let mixture rest a few minutes then shape into 4 burgers. (This can be refrigerated for up to a day, but be sure to bring it up to room temperature before cooking or they'll fall apart when you cook them.)
• Put oil in a nonstick skillet and turn fire to medium.
• When hot, add burgers.
• Cook 5 mins each side or until browned. Do not poke at them or they will fall apart.
• Lower heat a bit and cook another 3-4 mins so that they firm up.
• Serve on buns as you like. Chutney is suggested. I'm a blue cheese lover myself. Voila!

Steps:

• Grind seeds and nuts in a food processor with a very small amount (about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon) of water until the mixture just begins to hold together; set aside. Chop carrot, onion and garlic in food processor until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine carrot and nut mixtures in a large bowl; add rice and mix thoroughly. Combine soy sauce and water and add to nut mixture, a little at a time, mixing well. Stir in basil and dill. Form mixture into 8 patties by gently shaping in your hands and then flattening on a lightly greased baking sheet. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until ready to use. Preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit Bake until heated through and the edges begin to turn brown. Do not turn. If desired, melt a slice of cheese on top of each burger. Besides adding flavor, the cheese helps hold the burgers together. Serving suggestions: The Sunflower (restaurant) serves their nut burgers on whole wheat buns with traditional condiments such as ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, tomatoes, etc.
