LENTIL BURGERS

Provided by Chris Morocco

Categories     Bon Appétit     Dinner     Hamburger     Lentil     Yogurt     Mushroom     Paprika     Lemon     Vegetarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free

Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup French green or brown lentils
½ cup whole-milk Greek yogurt
¼ tsp. finely grated lemon zest
1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, finely grated, divided
Kosher salt
6 oz. crimini mushrooms, stems trimmed, finely chopped
2 Tbsp. white miso
¼ tsp. smoked paprika
4 Tbsp. (or more) extra-virgin olive oil, divided
¼ cup (or more) oat flour, gluten-free 1:1 blend, or all-purpose flour
Whole wheat or gluten-free buns, sprouts and/or lettuce, and pickle slices (for serving)

Steps:

  • Place lentils in a large saucepan and pour in water to cover by 4". Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until lentils are tender but not mushy, about 10 minutes from the time the water reaches a boil. Drain well, then let cool at least 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix together yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, and half of garlic in a small bowl. Season with salt.
  • Mash mushrooms, miso, paprika, 2 Tbsp. oil, and remaining garlic in a medium bowl with a spoon to combine. Add lentils and mix and smash until partly mashed but with lots of whole lentils still remaining. Add flour and vigorously stir until mixture holds together when squeezed in your hand; if it doesn't, continue to mash until it does, adding another 1-2 Tbsp. flour if needed. Form into 6 patties about ¾" thick.
  • Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large nonstick skillet (patties will stick to a regular skillet) over medium. Cook 3 patties until deeply browned and crisp underneath, about 3 minutes. Carefully turn over; cook, adding more oil as needed to maintain a light coating around patties, until deeply browned and crisp on the other side, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining patties and 1 Tbsp. oil.
  • Spread cut side of buns with reserved yogurt mixture. Build burgers with buns, patties, sprouts, and pickles.

Tips:

  • Use Greek yogurt. Greek yogurt is thicker and has less moisture than regular yogurt, which will help the sauce to be thick and creamy.
  • Don't overcook the garlic. If you overcook the garlic, it will become bitter. To avoid this, cook the garlic over medium-low heat until it is fragrant and golden brown.
  • Add some herbs or spices to the sauce. Some popular additions include dill, parsley, cilantro, cumin, and paprika. Experiment with different combinations to find the flavor you like best.
  • Make the sauce ahead of time. The sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance. Simply store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  • Serve the sauce with your favorite veggie burgers. The sauce is also great with grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or pita bread.

Conclusion:

This yogurt garlic sauce is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used on a variety of dishes. It is easy to make, and it can be tailored to your own personal taste. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special occasion dish, this yogurt garlic sauce is sure to please.
