Categories     dinner, easy, for two, lunch, quick, weekday, burgers, main course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 large portobello mushrooms (about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pounds)
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (1 tablespoon for the pan)

PORK AND PORTOBELLO BURGERS



Pork and Portobello Burgers image

This is a new-age version of a veggie burger (as in half and half, not a burger made from vegetables and grain), which you might also think of as a stuffed mushroom. It's terrific, hearty, unusual and really cool: a portobello filled with sausage meat and grilled. In this instance, a broiler will work, as will a skillet.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     easy, quick, burgers, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound ground pork
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary, fennel seed or parsley
Salt and ground black pepper
4 large portobello mushroom caps, stems removed
Olive oil
4 burger buns
Any burger fixings you like

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill; the heat should be medium-high and the rack about 4 inches from the heat.
  • Combine the ground pork, garlic, rosemary and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Use a spoon to lightly scrape away the gills of the mushrooms and hollow them slightly. Drizzle the mushrooms (inside and out) with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Press 1/4 of the mixture into each of the hollow sides of the mushrooms; you want the meat to spread all the way across the width of the mushrooms. They should look like burgers.
  • Grill the burgers, meat side down, until the pork is well browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Flip and cook until the top side of the mushrooms are browned and the mushrooms are tender, another 6 to 8 minutes. If you like, use an instant-read thermometer to check the interior temperature of the pork, which should be a minimum of 145 degrees.
  • Serve the burgers on buns (toasted, if you like) with any fixings you like.

6 hamburger buns, split and lightly toasted

Steps:

  • Place the mushrooms, eggplant, winter squash, and zucchini into a shallow bowl or baking dish. Drizzle with the balsamic vinaigrette, turning to coat evenly. Cover, and refrigerate at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours, stirring occasionally.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  • Drain vegetables and discard marinade. Place vegetables on preheated grill, and cook until lightly browned, turning once, or about 3 minutes on each side. (Note that cooking times vary between grills.) Sprinkle the mushrooms with blue cheese, and let the cheese melt slightly.
  • Open the 6 hamburger buns and divide the eggplant, squash, and zucchini among bottom halves. Place the portobello mushrooms on top of the vegetables, cheese side up. Top with the remaining 6 hamburger bun halves. If necessary, use toothpicks to hold the buns in place. Serve immediately.

PORTOBELLO BUFFALO BURGERS WITH CELERY APPLE SLAW



Portobello Buffalo Burgers with Celery Apple Slaw image

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

For burgers:
1 medium onion, chopped
10 ounces portobello mushrooms, trimmed and quartered
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 pound ground buffalo
For slaw:
2 celery ribs
1/2 Granny Smith apple, cored (left unpeeled)
1 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 1/2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon whole-grain mustard
Rounded 1/4 teaspoon sugar
Equipment: an adjustable-blade slicer fitted with 1/8-inch julienne blade
Accompaniment: 4 hamburger buns or kaiser rolls, split and toasted

Steps:

  • Cook vegetables for burgers:
  • Pulse onion and mushrooms in a food processor until finely chopped. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a 10-inch heavy skillet over medium heat until it shimmers. Add mushroom mixture, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and rounded 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to brown and liquid has evaporated, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cool to warm, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make slaw:
  • Cut celery and apple into 2-inch-long thin julienne with slicer.
  • Whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, oil, mustard, sugar, rounded 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Add celery and apple, tossing to coat. Let stand 15 minutes to develop flavors.
  • Finish and cook burgers:
  • Mix buffalo into cooled mushroom mixture with your hands until well combined. Form into 4 (4-inch) patties.
  • Heat remaining 2 teaspoons oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Cook burgers, turning once, about 8 minutes total for medium-rare.
  • Serve burgers, topped with slaw, on buns.

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, slice the portobello mushrooms evenly.
  • If you want a smoky flavor, grill or broil the portobello mushrooms instead of pan-frying them.
  • Portobello burgers can also be baked in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 20 minutes, or until cooked through.
  • Feel free to get creative with your toppings! Some popular options include cheese, avocado, tomato, onion, lettuce, and sprouts.
  • To make a vegan portobello burger, use a plant-based cheese alternative and a vegan bun.

Conclusion:

Portobello burgers are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional beef burgers. They are packed with flavor and nutrients, and they can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you grill them, broil them, or pan-fry them, portobello burgers are sure to be a hit at your next cookout. So next time you're looking for a tasty and healthy burger option, give portobello mushrooms a try!
