Veggie Burger Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Rice

   Cook the brown rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, set it aside to cool.

2. 2

   Sauté the Mushrooms

   In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped mushrooms and garlic, and sauté until the mushrooms are soft and all the moisture has evaporated, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

3. 3

   Mix the Burger Ingredients

   In a large bowl, combine the cooked brown rice, sautéed mushrooms, chopped almonds, remaining olive oil, salt, black pepper, and egg (or flax egg). Mix well until all ingredients are combined. If the mixture is too wet, add breadcrumbs until you reach a suitable consistency.

4. 4

   Form the Patties

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

5. 5

   Cook the Patties

   Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a little olive oil, and cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.

6. 6

   Prepare the Miso Dressing

   In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of miso paste with 1 tablespoon of water and a splash of olive oil to create a dressing.

7. 7

   Assemble the Burger

   Serve the veggie patties on a bun or lettuce wrap, topped with fresh arugula and drizzled with miso dressing.
