Vegan Tofu Burger

Ease of Preparation: Easy
Time of Preparation: 30 minutes
Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients:

• 8 ounces firm tofu (250 grams)
• ¼ cup Tahini (60 millilitres)
• ½ cup ground walnuts (60 grams)
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
• 1-tablespoon soy sauce (15 millilitres)
• 1-cup bread crumbs (75 grams)
• 4 ounces mushrooms (125 grams)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil (15 millilitres)

Method:

Preheat the grill to high

Mash the tofu with the tahini in a bowl with a fork. Add the dill and the soy sauce.

Slice the mushrooms and then, in a separate frying pan over a medium-high heat, cook them in a slick of olive oil. Once they have released their water and are beginning to caramelize, add them to the tofu mixture. Add the walnuts and the breadcrumbs until the correct texture is achieved. The mixture should be just firm enough to form patties without being soggy.

Form the tofu into burger shapes and place on an oiled grill. Cook until browned on both sides.
