Tofu And Veggie Burger Recipes

Steps:

• Press carrot and zucchini between paper towels to remove excess moisture. In a medium bowl combine carrots, zucchini, tofu, onion, celery, egg, bread crumbs and curry paste.
• Chop 2/3 of the basil and add it to the tofu mixture. Mix well and form into 4 patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook patties for 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Serve with remaining basil leaves.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Slice tofu into 1/4-inch-thick slabs and pat dry with paper towel. Arrange tofu on one half of a rimmed baking sheet; brush both sides with oil. Spread mushrooms on the other half of the baking sheet; toss with 2 tablespoons oil and salt and pepper.
• On a second rimmed baking sheet, toss beans and grated beet with 1 tablespoon oil and salt and pepper, then spread the mixture into one layer.
• Transfer both baking sheets to the oven. Roast bean-beet mixture, tossing occasionally, until beans begin to split and beets are tender and golden, about 15 minutes. Roast mushrooms and tofu until golden and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 25 minutes. Let everything cool.
• Place nuts in a food processor and pulse until coarsely ground. Add cooled bean-beet mixture, mushrooms, tofu, panko, cheese, eggs, mayonnaise, scallion, garlic, pimentón and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Pulse until ingredients are just combined. Pulse in tempeh and rice but do not overprocess. You want small chunks, not a smooth mixture. Scrape mixture into a bowl and chill at least 2 hours or up to 5 days (you can also freeze the burger mix).
• When you are ready to make the burgers, divide mixture into 6 equal portions and form each portion into a patty about 1 inch thick. Return to the fridge until just before grilling. They grill better when they start out cold.
• Heat the grill. Cook the burgers over a low fire until they are charred on both sides and firm when you press on them, 4 to 6 minutes per side. If they start to burn before they firm up, move them to the sides of the grill to finish cooking over indirect heat. Alternatively, you can cook these on a grill pan or in a skillet over low heat.

Steps:

• Pat tofu dry with absorbent paper. Spread tofu, in single layer, on absorbent-paper-lined tray; cover with more paper, stand 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in medium frying pan; cook brown onion and garlic, stirring, until onion softens.
• Add spices; cook, stirring until fragrant.
• Combine onion mixture in large bowl with tofu, zucchini and breadcrumbs; shape into four patties.
• Cover; referigerate 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine hummus and yogurt in small bowl.
• Cut bread into four pieces. Split each piece in half horizontally; toast cut sides in heated oiled grill pan.
• Cook patties in same oiled grill pan until browned both sides and hot.
• Spread bread with hummus mixture; sandwich combined mint, parsley and green onion, patties and sprouts between bread pieces.

Steps:

• Prepare the rice according to the package directions. Peel and finely grate the ginger and put it into a small baking dish or medium bowl along with the soy sauce, garlic chili sauce and sesame oil. Whisk to combine.
• Place a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Cut the baked tofu into 1-inch-by-1/2-inch pieces and add to the marinade. Stir to combine and reserve. Fill a small measuring cup or bowl with cold water and keep by the stovetop.
• Add the canola oil to the hot pan and swirl to coat. Add the shiitake mushrooms and cook until tender and browned in spots, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes. Add the stir-fry vegetable mix and a large pinch of salt. Cook until crisp tender, 3 to 5 minutes (the cooking time will depend on the size of the vegetables in the mix). If at any time the pan seems too hot, stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons water. Add the marinated tofu to the vegetables along with 2 tablespoons water. Cook until the tofu is warmed through, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Transfer the stir-fry to a large platter. Scatter the cashews on top and serve alongside the rice.

Steps:

• In a large skillet heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium high heat. Stir in corn, mushrooms, scallions, and bell pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes. Add garlic, cumin and cayenne and cook for 30 seconds. Remove from heat and stir in spinach. Add carrot and potato and stir to combine. Add egg white and season with salt and pepper. Stir in enough bread crumbs so that the mixture holds together. Shape mixture into 6 disks and place on a plate. Chill for 1 hour.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in non-stick skillet and cook veggie burgers until golden on each side. In a small bowl mix together yogurt and mint

Steps:

• in a small saucepan, bring the rice and water to a boil. reduce to a simmer and cook rice until tender, but not mushy. (about 20 minutes) when rice is cooked, remove from heat and stir in the minced garlic.
• while rice cooks, prepare and combine the remaining ingredients in a large bowl. add the cooked rice and garlic mixture to the bowl, and mash everything together well.
• pressing firmly, form mixture into 6 patties.
• heat the oil on a well seasoned griddle or non-stick pan, and cook the burgers over medium heat until lightly browned. (about 6 minutes per side).

Steps:

• Put all the ingredients into a bowl.
• Using a large fork or spoon, mash the ingredients together. (Alternatively, a blender can be used.).
• When it's mashed enough so you can mold the mix into patties without it falling apart, do so! I made patties about the size of my palm, but they can be any size you want.
• Heat up a frying pan with some olive oil in it. You might need to add more or less depending on the size of the pan, and how many patties you've made.
• Carefully place the patties into the pan. Heat them for about 3 minutes, or until they're brown on the bottom. Flip them over, and go for 3 minutes again.
• When they're done, take them off carefully with a spatula! Serve them up with some mozzarella cheese on whole-wheat bread. I think they taste best after microwaved for 30 seconds.

Steps:

• In a medium skillet, mix the onion, carrot, celery and zucchini with the 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil. Sauté over medium heat until onion is clear. Remove from heat and add the brown rice, oats and seasonings. Mix well and add the tofu, With a fork, mash the tofu into fine pieces and mix well.
• In a small bowl, combine all the liquid ingredients and stir to mix. Pour over the rice mixture and stir until moistened and evenly mixed. Shape into 8 evenly-sized patties approximately 3 1/2 to 4 inches in diameter. Dredge each patty with bread crumbs, making sure to coat both sides.
• Place the patties on a baking sheet that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray, then spray the tops of each patty.
• Bake in a 375 degree oven for 15 minutes. Turn the patties over, spray the tops with the cooking spray and bake another 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let them sit for 5 minutes.
• Serve with buns or by themselves with mashed potatoes and gravy. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine in food processor til well combined but not mushy.
• Form into 8 patties.
• Fry 5 mins per side until brown and crispy.
• or bake 20-25 min @ 375.
• I served mine with arugula, tomato, red onion and goat cheese. What an awesome combination.

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients except the oils in a large bowl with some seasoning and mix well. Heat both the oils in a frying pan. Grease an 8cm metal pastry ring or cookie cutter and place in the pan. When hot, pour 5 tbsp of the batter in and turn the heat down to medium.
• Cook 4-5 mins until golden, then take off the ring (be careful, as it may be hot), flip the pattie and cook the other side. Do this in batches, keeping finished patties warm in a low oven. Serve with the chilli sauce and extra spring onions, if you like.
