VEGAN 'CHICKEN' BURGERS



Vegan 'chicken' burgers image

These vegan 'chicken' burgers are made with TVP for the perfect 'meaty' texture! They're so easy to make, and perfect with your favourite burger sauce.

Provided by Becca Heyes

Categories     Main meal

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 10

750 ml (~ 3 cups) hot vegetable stock
200 g (~ 3 cups) dried TVP chunks
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp garlic granules
1 tsp dried Italian mixed herbs
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp salt
45 g (~ 1/3 cup) plain flour
2 tbsp oil, (for frying)
To serve: 6 burger buns, (salad, sauces)

Steps:

  • Pour the hot vegetable stock into a large bowl, and add the dried TVP chunks. You can add a little more water if needed, to ensure they're fully covered in liquid. Soak for at least 15 minutes, until soft - you may need to give them a stir every few minutes to ensure all the chunks are soaking properly, as they tend to float to the surface of the liquid.
  • Drain the liquid from the TVP chunks, collecting a small amount of it in a bowl.
  • Place the soaked TVP chunks in a food processor, and pulse a few times to chop the TVP into a mince-like texture.
  • Transfer the TVP to another mixing bowl, and add the remaining ingredients (not including the oil). Add about a tablespoon of the soaking liquid, and mix thoroughly.
  • Heat a dash of oil in a frying pan. Take a handful of the TVP mixture, and form it into a burger shape. I found I needed to squeeze it together quite firmly. Place in the pan, and repeat with some more of the mixture - I cooked 3 burgers at a time, making 6 in total. Cook the burgers for a few minutes each side, over a medium heat, until crispy and golden brown.
  • Serve in buns with salad and sauce.

VEGAN CHEESEBURGERS



Vegan Cheeseburgers image

The new generation of vegan meat alternatives, such as Impossible and Beyond, are at their best when still medium-rare and juicy. Flipping the patties frequently as they cook ensures an evenly cooked interior and good flavor development on the exterior. To make the burgers vegetarian, feel free to use any good melting cheese, such as American, Cheddar or Swiss, but to make them strictly vegan, be sure to look for vegan burger buns, as standard supermarket burger buns frequently contain milk or other dairy products.

Provided by J. Kenji López-Alt

Categories     easy, quick, weekday, burgers, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 cheeseburgers

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound vegan ground meat, such as Impossible or Beyond
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
4 slices vegan cheese, such as Cheddar-style
4 vegan hamburger buns, lightly toasted
Toppings and condiments, to taste

Steps:

  • Divide vegan ground meat into 4 equal pieces. Pick up one piece, transfer to a cutting board, and use your hands to press and shape it into a patty about 1/4-inch wider than your bun. Repeat to form remaining patties. Put three fingers of one hand together, and press a shallow indentation into the center of each patty. Season with salt and pepper.
  • In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high until shimmering. Add patties and cook, flipping frequently, until well browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the coolest part of the center of the patty registers 120 to 125 degrees for medium-rare, or 130 to 135 degrees for medium. Immediately add cheese slices to the top of the patties, and transfer them to a large plate.
  • Dress bottom buns as desired. Place a patty on top, and dress top bun as desired. Close cheeseburgers and serve.

CHEESY, STUFFED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM BURGERS



Cheesy, Stuffed Portobello Mushroom Burgers image

Mushrooms are wonderful and, these days, they are getting called upon to play so many different parts. One of the most popular things is to use mushrooms as a substitute for meat. It works well because they have such wonderful texture and heartiness. The portobello is the top dog of the cultivated mushroom world because it's large and can be a meal unto itself. They are cultivated mushrooms (as opposed to wild, foraged kinds) and are earthy and meaty. Regarding mushrooms in general: Wash them just before cooking (if they are dirty) so they are clean but don't sit around, waterlogged, in your fridge. Many people scrape the brown "ribs" out of the insides of the portobello and peel the outer skin. Why? I say leave everything on the mushroom (except dirt). Make sure you cook mushrooms long enough-they take longer than you think to reach full flavor.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 2 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 large portobello mushrooms, wiped of any dirt
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
6 large garlic cloves
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided use
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 teaspoons granulated garlic
3/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
8 basil leaves, torn
2 to 4 iceberg lettuce leaves
Sliced dill pickles and pickle juice, for serving
Red wine vinegar, to drizzle
2 burger buns, buttered and toasted

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment and set aside.
  • Roast the mushrooms: Arrange the mushrooms, stem side up, onions and garlic cloves in a single layer on 1 prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with half of the olive oil. Drizzle 1/2 cup water around the mushrooms on the baking sheet. Season generously with salt and pepper. Roast in the center of the oven until the mushrooms shrink in size and become darker brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove and let cool.
  • Bread the mushrooms: In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with a splash of water. In another medium bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with the granulated garlic. Dip each mushroom in the egg mixture and then coat completely with the breadcrumbs. Reserve everything.
  • Fry the mushrooms: In a large skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat until it begins to smoke. Add the mushrooms in a single layer. Cook on one side until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the second side until golden brown, another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the mushrooms from the oil and arrange in a single layer on a clean baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Make the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the roasted garlic cloves and onion slices with the cheese. Add any remaining egg and 1/4 cup of the breadcrumbs leftover from the breading. Add the basil and mix well.
  • Assemble and bake: On the same baking sheet, place 2 portobellos, stem-side up, with some distance between them. Pile half of the filling on each and then top with the remaining mushrooms, pressing gently but firmly down, so it forms a fairly compact sandwich. Bake until the cheese melts, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Arrange the lettuce to form 2 cups. Drizzle some pickle juice and red wine vinegar into the cups. Season with salt and pepper and then top with some sliced pickles.
  • Place each mushroom burger onto a bottom bun. Flip a lettuce cup onto each burger and top with the top bun. Serve.

CHEESY VEG BURGERS

Packed with goodness - though your kids would never know

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 30m

Yield Makes 8 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tbsp olive oil
2 leeks , sliced
200g mushroom , sliced
2 large carrots , peeled and coarsely grated
1 tbsp seasoning , we used Schwartz Moroccan
1 tbsp soy sauce
300g can bean , try kidney or pinto, drained and rinsed
100g cheddar , coarsely grated
200g (about 4 slices) granary bread torn into pieces
burger buns , lettuce, tomato and other favourites, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tbsp oil in a shallow saucepan over a medium flame. Tip in vegetables, seasoning and soy sauce, then cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 mins until soft. Tip veg into a food processor with the beans, cheese and bread, season, then pulse to a thick paste.
  • With wet hands, mould mix into 8 burgers. These can be kept in the fridge for 2 days or frozen, stacked between greaseproof sheets for up to 2 months.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beans. For a hearty and flavorful burger, use a combination of black beans and kidney beans. Black beans provide a slightly sweet flavor, while kidney beans add a touch of heartiness. You can also use other beans, such as chickpeas or lentils, but the texture may be different.
  • Add plenty of seasonings. Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and herbs to flavor your burgers. Some good options include chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and oregano. You can also add a touch of heat with cayenne pepper or chipotle powder.
  • Don't overcook the burgers. The burgers should be cooked until they are heated through, but not overcooked. Overcooked burgers will be dry and crumbly. Cook the burgers over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the burgers on your favorite bun. You can use a traditional hamburger bun, a whole wheat bun, or even a portobello mushroom bun. Top the burgers with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and cheese. You can also add a dollop of ketchup, mustard, or mayonnaise.

Conclusion:

These cheesy vegan burgers are a delicious and satisfying plant-based meal. They're perfect for a casual weeknight dinner or a backyard barbecue. With a few simple ingredients, you can make these burgers that are sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're craving a burger, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
