Burger Base

Method

Prepare the Teri Sauce

  1. 1

    Combine Ingredients

    In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Stir well to ensure the sugar is dissolved.

  2. 2

    Simmer the Sauce

    Heat the saucepan over medium heat. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally, and let it cook for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.

Cook the Gardenburger

  1. 3

    Prepare the Patties

    While the sauce is simmering, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. If desired, lightly oil the pan to prevent sticking.

  2. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Place the Gardenburger patties in the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until heated through and golden brown. Remove from heat.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 5

    Toast the Buns

    If desired, lightly toast the whole wheat hamburger buns in the skillet until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Build the Burger

    On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf followed by a cooked Gardenburger patty. Drizzle with the prepared Teri sauce and top with tomato slices and chopped green onions.

  3. 7

    Finish the Burger

    Place the top half of the bun over the toppings, press down gently, and serve immediately.
