Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by chopping the mushrooms and grating the beetroot. Also, make sure your lentils are cooked and ready to use.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Mushrooms

    In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped mushrooms and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are soft and browned. Remove from heat and set aside.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the sautéed mushrooms, cooked lentils, grated beetroot, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  4. 4

    Add Breadcrumbs

    Gradually add breadcrumbs to the mixture until it holds together well. You may need more or less depending on the moisture of the ingredients.

  5. 5

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty.

  6. 6

    Cook the Patties

    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and heat over medium heat. Cook each patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side until crispy and golden brown.

  7. 7

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger buns lightly. On the bottom half of each bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by a cooked patty, a slice of tomato, some toasted onion, and a generous drizzle of R & P sauce. Top with the other half of the bun.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Serve the vegan burgers warm with your choice of side dishes.
