MUSHROOM-LENTIL BURGERS



Mushroom-Lentil Burgers image

Mushrooms and lentils come together for a veggie burger worth making! The mushrooms yield a beefy flavor but I like to kick it up a notch by mixing steak sauce with mayo to slather on the bun for extra "beefy" flavor.

JULIE'S LENTIL-NUT MUSHROOM BURGERS



Julie's Lentil-Nut Mushroom Burgers image

I make batches of this veggie burger, and freeze patties for later. I usually serve it in pita bread. Yum! Adapted (tweaked and additional ingredients) from a recipe in the original Moosewood Cookbook recipe titled "Lentil-Walnut Burgers." Prep time includes chilling.

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

3/4 cup dry lentils
1 1/2 cups water
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon olive oil (additional)
1 medium onion, finely minced (about 1 cup)
4 cloves garlic, minced
10 large mushrooms, minced (about 2 cups)
1/4 cup blanched almond, finely minced
1/4 cup filberts, finely minced (hazelnuts)
1 cup finely minced cabbage
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
1 teaspoon salt
freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder or 1/2 teaspoon dried ancho chile powder, to taste (type and amount depending on how spicy you like it)
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/4 cup dry white wine

Steps:

  • Using a food processor, finely mince the appropriate ingredients listed above.
  • In a saucepan, bring the lentils, vinegar, oil, and water to a boil.
  • Reduce the temperature, and simmer, partly-covered, 30 minutes or until the lentils are soft and the liquid is absorbed.
  • In the meantime (while lentils are cooking), saute remaining ingredients together over medium heat in butter and additional olive oil for 10 to 15 minutes and all are tender.
  • When lentils are soft, and liquid is gone, place in large bowl and mash (or use food processor).
  • Add the mushroom mixture to the mashed or processed lentils, and mix well.
  • Chill for about 1 hour.
  • Make 4-inch patties from chilled mixture.
  • Note: uncooked burgers may be individually wrapped and frozen. For freezing, make patties, place wax paper between each patty and stack; wrap well and freeze (or wrap individually).
  • To cook: Fry burgers in butter until brown, *or* broil about 8 minutes on each side. Try putting sesame seeds in pan to keep burgers from sticking to pan, if it is a problem.
  • Serve either as patties, as burgers in a whole-wheat bun, or filling for a pita.
  • Good with cheese melted on top, basil sprinkled on each burger is tasty also.
