THE ULTIMATE VEGGIE BURGER



The Ultimate Veggie Burger image

You make a veggie burger because you want the hamburger experience without the meat. This one delivers. It's got a firm, beefy texture that takes on the char and smoke of the grill, but is adaptable enough to cook inside on your stove. The enemy of a veggie burger is mushiness, which stems from a high moisture content. To combat that, the very watery ingredients - mushrooms, tofu, beans and beets - are roasted to both dehydrate them somewhat and intensify their flavors. Yes, the ingredient list here is long; you need a diverse lot to make a good veggie burger. And each one adds something in terms of flavor and/or texture. Garnish this any way you like, and don't forget to toast the buns.

Time 3h30m

Yield 6 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 ounces extra-firm tofu, drained
Olive oil
1/2 pound cremini mushrooms, trimmed and sliced
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt, more as needed
Black pepper, as needed
1 (15-ounce) can kidney beans, drained
1 medium beet, peeled and coarsely grated (3/4 cup)
3/4 cup tamari almonds or cashews
1/3 cup panko bread crumbs
2 ounces Cotija cheese or queso blanco, crumbled or grated (about 1/2 cup)
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 scallions, sliced
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3/4 teaspoon dulce pimentón or sweet smoked paprika
4 ounces tempeh, crumbled
1/2 cup cooked brown rice

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Slice tofu into 1/4-inch-thick slabs and pat dry with paper towel. Arrange tofu on one half of a rimmed baking sheet; brush both sides with oil. Spread mushrooms on the other half of the baking sheet; toss with 2 tablespoons oil and salt and pepper.
  • On a second rimmed baking sheet, toss beans and grated beet with 1 tablespoon oil and salt and pepper, then spread the mixture into one layer.
  • Transfer both baking sheets to the oven. Roast bean-beet mixture, tossing occasionally, until beans begin to split and beets are tender and golden, about 15 minutes. Roast mushrooms and tofu until golden and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 25 minutes. Let everything cool.
  • Place nuts in a food processor and pulse until coarsely ground. Add cooled bean-beet mixture, mushrooms, tofu, panko, cheese, eggs, mayonnaise, scallion, garlic, pimentón and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Pulse until ingredients are just combined. Pulse in tempeh and rice but do not overprocess. You want small chunks, not a smooth mixture. Scrape mixture into a bowl and chill at least 2 hours or up to 5 days (you can also freeze the burger mix).
  • When you are ready to make the burgers, divide mixture into 6 equal portions and form each portion into a patty about 1 inch thick. Return to the fridge until just before grilling. They grill better when they start out cold.
  • Heat the grill. Cook the burgers over a low fire until they are charred on both sides and firm when you press on them, 4 to 6 minutes per side. If they start to burn before they firm up, move them to the sides of the grill to finish cooking over indirect heat. Alternatively, you can cook these on a grill pan or in a skillet over low heat.

THE BEST VEGGIE BURGER



The Best Veggie Burger image

These veggie burgers are hearty, savory, and rich in meaty flavor, thanks to cremini mushrooms, rice, black beans, and walnuts. Your family may think you made them with real meat! The texture is a little softer than a beef patty, but a wonderful contrast to the beautiful, pan-fried crust that really stands up to the bun and toppings.

Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 (16 ounce) package cremini mushrooms, cut in half
½ small onion, chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (8.8 ounce) pouch cooked brown rice, cooled
½ cup walnuts
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt, or more to taste
½ teaspoon ground black pepper, or more to taste
1 large egg
¾ cup dry bread crumbs
8 slices Muenster cheese
8 (2 ounce) hamburger buns, split and toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil.
  • Place mushrooms and onion on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil and toss to coat.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) and add black beans to the pan. Cook until mushrooms and onions are browned and beans are dried on the surface, about 5 more minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let mixture cool for 10 minutes.
  • Transfer mixture to a food processor. Add rice and walnuts and pulse until roughly chopped. Add Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, soy sauce, garlic powder, paprika, chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and pulse until just combined. Add egg and pulse until just combined.
  • Transfer mixture to a medium bowl and fold in bread crumbs until well mixed. Chill for 10 minutes.
  • Form mixture into 8 patties and season each with salt and pepper.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet. Add 4 patties and cook, undisturbed, until browned and a nice crust has formed, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook until done, 4 to 5 more minutes. Top with Muenster cheese and place on toasted buns.
  • Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet and repeat to cook remaining patties.

  • Cook the burgers over medium heat for about 5 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Be sure to flip the burgers halfway through cooking.
  • Serve the burgers on buns with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, and avocado.
