Tofu Burger Recipes

Steps:

• Place tofu in freezer 72 hours ahead of time. To thaw, fill a large saucepan with water and bring to a simmer. Leave tofu in package and place in water for about 20 minutes.
• While tofu is thawing, heat 2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a small skillet. Saute onion and celery until soft and lightly browned. Place in a medium bowl and set aside.
• When tofu is thawed, squeeze out excess water. Chop tofu finely and place in bowl with onion and celery. Mix in egg, cheese, salt and pepper until thoroughly combined.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and pour in 1/2 cup vegetable oil (oil should be 1/4 inch deep). Drop tofu mixture into pan in 6 equal portions. Flatten with a spatula to form patties. Fry for 5 to 7 minutes on each side, until golden.

Steps:

• Put the sweet potato in a microwaveable bowl, cover with cling film and cook on high for 3 mins until soft. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and fry the onion with a big pinch of salt until soft, around 5 mins. Add the garlic and spices and cook for 2 mins more, then set aside. Blitz the tofu with the cashews in a blender, then tip in the sweet potato and fried onions. Season and blitz again until combined. Shape into four burger patties and set aside in the fridge on a lined baking tray while you make the slaw.
• Make the slaw by combining the ingredients in a bowl, then set aside until needed. When you're ready to fry the patties, mix the mustard with the soy milk in one bowl, then mix the remaining coating ingredients in another bowl. In turn, take each patty and dip into the flour mixture, then into the soy milk mixture, then back into the flour mixture. Repeat this again so you get a really nice crust on the patties.
• Pour the vegetable oil into a large frying pan over a medium-high heat - you want the oil to come about 2cm up the side of the pan. Once hot, use a spatula to carefully add the patties and gently fry for 1 min on each side until crispy, then leave to drain on kitchen paper. Serve the burgers in burger buns, topped with the slaw and drizzled with the mayo.

Steps:

• Combine in food processor til well combined but not mushy.
• Form into 8 patties.

• or bake 20-25 min @ 375.
• I served mine with arugula, tomato, red onion and goat cheese. What an awesome combination.

Steps:

• 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:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
• Generously oil baking sheet.
• Place tofu between two plates, and rest heavy weight on top plate.

• Crumble pressed tofu into large bowl.
• Stir in walnuts, bread crumbs, tahini, miso, soy sauce and mustard, if using.
• Add sautéed vegetables, and mix well.
• Using about 3/4 cup burger mix per burger, form 8 patties by hand, and place on baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
• Bake for about 30 minutes, or until burgers are firm and browned.
• Serve hot.

Steps:
