Number Of Ingredients 19

1 medium eggplant
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar
2/3 cup oatmeal
2/3 cup crumbs, either bread, cracker, or cornflake
2 eggs
1/2 small onion, chopped fine
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

1/4 cup cooking oil
1/2 cup crumbs to coat burgers before frying
all the trimmings for burgers: cheese slices
lettuce
sliced tomato
mayonaise
mustard
sliced pickle
sliced red onion
buns, white or whole wheat

Steps:

  • Peel eggplant and chop into 1" pieces. Steam or boil until soft. Squeeze out excess water. Mix with cheese,crumbs,oatmeal, eggs, parsley and spices, adjusting amount of crumbs so the patties will hold together. Shape into patties, about 1" thick, coat with remaining crumbs, then fry in hot oil until browned, flipping only once. Drain and serve 'em up just like regular burgers!
