Homemade Veggie Burgers image

This recipe is really a base, and you can take it and make any number of variations- add chopped sauteed vegetables or different seasonings to change the flavor. They're also great just as they are, on buns with traditional burger toppings. I fried them in some olive oil, but they could probably also be broiled or grilled over foil. Finally, they're not completely vegan because I couldn't make them form patties without the egg.

Time 10h10m

Yield 4 burgers, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/3 cup small red beans, dried
1/3 cup navy beans, dried
1/2 carrot, diced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 egg
2 tablespoons onions, minced
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 pinch chili powder
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1/3 cup breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • The day before cooking, place dried beans in a bowl and add enough water to cover by 2-3 inches. Soak beans for 8-10 hours.
  • When ready to prepare burgers, drain and rinse beans.
  • Place beans and carrots in a saucepan, and cover with water seasoned with lemon juice. Simmer until beans and carrots are tender, drain, and allow to cool until you can touch it bare-handed.
  • Place mixture in a bowl, and add egg, onions, and spices. Mash with a fork (or process in a food processor) until it forms a chunky paste. Then add bread crumbs, and mix thoroughly.
  • Form into patties and cook by your desired method, until burgers are firm to the touch.
  • Serve with whatever type of buns and toppings you like.
