SUMMER BURGERS
Ingredients
220gms onions
100gms carrot
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp oil
1 tsp dried oregano
230gms mushrooms
40gms tamari or soy sauce
1/2 cup besan flour (sorry forgot to weigh it)
1 tsp salt
1 tlbsp nutritional yeast flakes
oil for frying
Method
* Add onions, carrot and garlic to *: chop sp 7 for 10 seconds
* Add mushrooms and chop sp 7 for a further 10 seconds or until all vegies are finely diced
* Add oil if using and fry off vegies for 5 mins on varoma temp - allow to cool for 5 mins
* Add the other ingredients to the onion mixture and combine :-: sp 4 for about 30 seconds
* Shape into burger patties and fry for 5 mins each side or until firm and golden brown.
Recipe from The Revive Café Cookbook 3
* I didn't add oil to the vegies, just sweat down and drained the water off them.
* I needed to add an extra 1/4 cup of besan flour as the mixture was a bit moist - possibly due to sweating off vegies in TMX.
* I used soy sauce.
* As I had no nutritional yeast flakes I substituted it for 2 tlbsp of umami paste as apparently it has a similar flavour.
The mixture made 2 over sized burger patties and 5 regular sized. The recipe states it makes 5.
Hally: Looks good what is besan flour?
Katiej: I'm pretty sure besan flour is chickpea flour.
Where do you buy the nutritional yeast flakes? Can you just leave them out?
Michele: Besan flour is just chickpeas (dried) buy them in any supermarket and grind in the TMX (it is very noisy - worse than ice).
Nutritional yeast flakes you can buy from health food stores - I used umami paste as a substitute. I'm sure concentrated vegie stock would fit the bill too and reduce the added salt.
GF:Thanks, Mich! Made these tonight but as it was only for me I tried "quartering" the recipe. A bit of "guesstimation"... !!! Didn't have yeast flakes so I used veg stock concentrate ... Just lovely! Next time I'll add a little more of the flour.
Have you tried freezing these, Mich?
Michele: No GF, I haven't tried freezing - but I will this week as I want to serve these for the vego's at our BBQ on Sunday. I can't see why they wouldn't freeze well? I'm going to use a little less soy sauce in the next batch and I bought some nutritional yeast flakes from the health food store today to try out.
Cookie: We had these last night. The flavour was lovely, although I would use a tiny bet less soy next time too. My mixture was quite sloppy and I think I should have added the extra flour too.
Michele: How many patties did you get out of the mixture?
Cookie:I think about 6. I had a couple left so I am going to spread them thickly over a teeny beef roast I have and cover it in pastry for tonight's dinner.
Hally: Just made the mixture, used 1/2 cup flour & then added more. Leaving to roll later.
Made 3 good size burgers. I then Rolled balls in panko breadrcrumbs & tossed in pan. Delicious
Yes they worked well. Then the burgers I melted mozarella over them
DM: Made this in the middle of winter for picnic. Subs nutritional yeast with pecorino cheese, add some Ozemite for flavor and need extra about a cup of panko breadcrumb, first batch without breadcrumb is too sloppy.

they look delicious Michele and sound very tasty :D
-
They look really nice. I love the Revive recipe books - the recipes are always reliable and straightforward. Must put this on my to do list!
-
Looks delicious Mich.
My DH loves veggie burgers, so I'll have to make these.
-
Thanks girls, they got a big thumbs up from DH, he said they were very meaty in texture. Very economical too.
-
Looks good :) what is besan flour?
-
These do look good but as Hally said, what is the flour?
-
I'm pretty sure besan flour is chickpea flour.

-
Great thanks Mich. I showed your picture to my DH and he said the burger looks great.
Grinding chickpeas is the loudest thing you can do in Thermie I think.
-
Great thanks Michele.
-
Chick pea grinding sure does have a high decibel count. I'm glad you mentioned a substitution for the yeast Mich as I didn't know where to get it. DD has requested a mushroom burger so this would certainly be different.
-
Thanks Mich :)
-
Thanks, Mich! Made these tonight but as it was only for me I tried "quartering" the recipe. A bit of "guesstimation"... !!! Didn't have yeast flakes so I used veg stock concentrate ... Just lovely! Next time I'll add a little more of the flour.
Have you tried freezing these, Mich?
-
I have nutritional flakes in the freezer. I also have veggie burgers. Perhaps I should use these first. Although these sound Delish! So I will be back.
-
These are going to be tonight's dinner. I must make the burger rolls.

Looks yummy Cookie. Nothing like homemade burgers. How many patties did you get out of the mixture?
-
I think about 6. I had a couple left so I am going to spread them thickly over a teeny beef roast I have and cover it in pastry for tonight's dinner.
-
Yummo, Cookie, it would make a lovely crust/stuffing. :D
-
It did Mich. it was a mini beef Wellington and tasted delicious. We had one burger left after I had prepared this and piggy me ate it. I loved it cold.
-
Just made the mixture, used 1/2 cup flour & then added more. Leaving to roll later. Dont think cp will eat these so chicken burgers for him too.
:)

Made 3 good size burgers. I then Rolled balls in panko breadrcrumbs & tossed in pan. Delicious
-
They look great.
Love the panko idea.
-
The panko crumbs are a nice touch Hally - will try that next time. :)
-
These sound great, on my list of things to make, next week...
-
They look great.
Love the panko idea.
Yes they worked well. Then the burgers I melted mozarella over them :P
-
I'm just making these now. Did anyone else have pureed veggies instead of finely diced veggies for even half of the amount of specified time? I'm not sure if I have stuffed up some how ???
-
I haven't made these NEF but hopefully someone who has will be able to answer your question.I tend to use speed 5 for 2-3 seconds when processing vegetables in the TM.
-
Likewise here.
