Burger Patty

Toppings

Method

Prepare the Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Clean the Mushrooms

    Gently clean the Hen of the Woods mushrooms under running water and pat dry with a towel. Remove any tough stems and chop the mushrooms into small pieces.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped mushrooms, panko breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form each portion into a burger patty shape.

  4. 4

    Cook the Patties

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the mushroom patties and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 5

    Prepare the Buns

    Toast the burger buns lightly on a skillet or in a toaster until golden brown.

  2. 6

    Add Lettuce

    Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each toasted burger bun.

  3. 7

    Add Cheese

    Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of the lettuce on each bun.

  4. 8

    Add Mushroom Patty

    Place the cooked mushroom patty on top of the cheese.

    Top with the other half of the burger bun and serve immediately.
