Vegetarian Burger
A red bean and mushroom burger.
Vegetarians, vegans, and even meat-lovers will enjoy these low-fat veggie burgers.
Ingredients
Before you start
These burgers can be cooked either in a pan on the stovetop or using an outdoor grill.
Method
- Prepare the vegetables and cilantro: finely chop the onion, press the garlic, finely chop the mushrooms, chop the cilantro, and mince the chili pepper. Set them aside.
- Heat half of the oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onion and garlic then sauté 3-4 until translucent. Add the cumin, turmeric and minced chili pepper. Cook 1 min with constant stirring. Add the mushrooms and cook, with occasional stirring, a few minutes until the mushrooms are softened and have lost most of their moisture. Remove the skillet from the heat.
- Drain the beans, rinse them and drain again thoroughly, then place them in a bowl. Mash them using a fork, then add them to the skillet with the chopped cilantro and mix well. Add plenty of salt and pepper.
- Form the mixture into flat patties, then lightly brush them with the remaining oil. Cook on a hot grill for 8-10 min, until golden brown, turning them once gently (they are not quite as firm as meat burgers). Alternatively, they may be cooked in a pan, over medium heat for 8-10 min, turning them once.
- Serve each burger over a tortilla with a spoonful of yogurt.

2009-08-28T13:00:49+00:00 august 28, 2009 | I would make this recipe againThese were divine! They mixed up nicely and cooked quickly. I had to hand shape the patties to get them to stick together and was a little worried about having yellow hands from the turmeric... but it didn't happen. I topped some patties with yogurt as suggested and some with homemade salsa. Simply fabulous! We'll definitely be making these again!
