Vegan Burgers!! ( Ok so all I really care about here is, if I get enough KETCHUP on it, MIGHT they eat it?!!!) So there are LOADS of different versions. I am going to try this one....
1 1/2 cup cooked Quinoa
1/2 cup black beans or hummus
1 TBSP. Tomato Paste ( I was out so used ketchup!!)
2 TBSP. Flax seed
2 TBSP. Bragg's ( basically a soy type sauce with no wheat or sodium)
1 tsp. basil and thyme
1/2 cup Old Fashion Oats
Garlic, onion powder, coriander ( a sprinkle of each)
1tbsp Marmite. http://www.marmite.com
Nutritional Yeast for coating http://bragg.com/products/yeast.html
Olive Oil for frying
No clue why that text is all different sizes and colours!!!!WISH ME LUCK ( I am going to need it!!!)
Ok so here is what they looked like. This is actually really good, because other bean burgers I have made have been the consistency of mashed potato!! These LOOK like real burgers in shape and firmness.
and here is how it was served.....notice the copious ketchuping!!!!!
WOW, FYI if you are making veggie burgers you NEED to put nutritional yeast on them before you cook them that stuff is THE BOMB!!!! It added a slightly cheese burger taste and lots of flavor!!!!
Meanwhile back to the dinner from the perspectives of the critics...... ( tries to hide the limp i came in with)
SIGH....Initially Small Human gave it a thumbs in the middle. Then about 1/4 of the way through, she changed her mind. Medium human shot me the moment it cleared her teeth.Pity, cos I REALLY liked them. I will make them again for me and experiment with different flavorings and spices!
