Vegetarian Cheeseburger With Yoghurt Sauce.

Recipe #373040 | 30 min | 10 min prep | add private note

By: chefchen

A meat free »burger« great in the pan and good for the grill. The oatmeal and chopped mushrooms add a pleasant texture. 1 burger is pretty filling; when served with a risotto it makes a well balanced meal. I serve it with a yoghurt sauce ( 1/2 cup of mild yoghurt mixed with a teaspoon of mustard, a tablespoon of olive oil and mixed dried herbs). You can also use the recipe to create vegetarian »meatloaf« or »meatballs«.

SERVES 6 , 6 vegetarian cheeseburgers (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 lb mushroom (500 grams)
  • 1-2 eggs
  • 4 tablespoons oatmeal (whole grain, rolled oats)
  • 3-4 tablespoons breadcrumbs
  • 4 tablespoons dried yeast (flakes, from the health food store (alternatively use 2 - 3 tablespoons of soy sauce to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 dash baking cocoa
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/16 teaspoon pepper
  • 2-3 tablespoons sunflower oil (for the pan)
  • 6 slices gouda cheese (use any cheese you like)

Directions

  1. 1
    Wash the mushrooms under running water.
  2. 2
    Place 2/3 of the mushrooms (whole), 1 egg and everything but the breadcrumbs in a bowl and puree it with a mixer. It should have a thick, smooth consistancy like the consistancy of cream cheese (You may use a food processor for this).
  3. 3
    Chop the remaining mushrooms into small cubes. Stir into the mixture.
  4. 4
    Add just enough breadcrumbs, so that you get a formable mass. (If the mixture is too dry, add another egg. If it is too wet, add more oatmeal and breadcrumbs.).
  5. 5
    Heat frying pan on high. Add about 1 1/2 teaspoons of oil to the pan.
  6. 6
    Wet hands with cold water. Form patties and place in pan. Turn down the heat to medium or medium low, depending on your stove's performance.
  7. 7
    Cook on one side for 5 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.
  8. 8
    Add some more oil to the pan.
  9. 9
    Turn the patties and cook on the other side for 5 minutes, adding the cheese about a minute before you take the patty out of the pan.
  10. 10
    Serve hot.
