Tofu Burgers/ Japanese Style image

This is an easy and tasty tofu burger recipe. This recipe makes nice firm burgers that don't fall apart; and using homemade BBQ sauce is the best, but store bought is fine too. This recipe is from friend who lived in Japan while husband was stationed there.(Lillian M )

I'm not sure what went wrong with my burgers, but they fell apart when I tried to flip them. I think I might have overcooked them.

These burgers were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more liquid next time.
