Best Julies Lentil Nut Mushroom Burgers Recipes

JULIE'S LENTIL-NUT MUSHROOM BURGERS

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.

LENTIL-WALNUT BURGERS

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine walnuts, breadcrumbs, garlic, cumin, coriander, pepper flakes, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; process until finely ground. Add lentils and 1 tablespoon oil; pulse until coarsely chopped (some lentils should remain whole).
• In a large bowl, whisk egg. Add lentil mixture; mix well. Divide into 4 equal-size parts; roll into balls, and flatten with the palm of your hand into 3/4-inch-thick patties.
• Heat remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet. Add burgers; cook over medium-low heat until crisp and browned, turning gently with a thin-edged spatula, 8 to 10 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Serve with Yogurt-Cilantro Sauce, if desired.

MUSHROOM LENTIL BURGER & FRIES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
• To make the flax egg, combine the flax meal and water in a small bowl and stir. Set aside.
• In a large saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
• Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the mushrooms and cook until most of the juices have evaporated, 7-8 minutes.
• Add the soy sauce and paprika and cook for 2-3 more minutes. Set aside in a large bowl.
• Heat another tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook for 3-5 minutes, until semi-translucent. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Add the salt and pepper and cook for another 2 minutes.
• Transfer the onion to a food processor, then add the lentils, oats, and flax egg. Pulse until chunky, about 10-15 pulses.
• Transfer the lentil mixture to the bowl with the mushrooms. Mix well, using your hands if needed, then shape into 5 patties. Place on a baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap, then freeze for 20 minutes.
• While the patties are freezing, prepare the fries. In a medium bowl, toss the potatoes, a drizzle of olive oil, the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well-coated.
• Spread the fries on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes.
• Remove the patties from freezer. In a large saucepan, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add 2-3 patties, careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 5 minutes, then flip and cook for 5 minutes on other side. Repeat with the remaining patties.
• To assemble the burgers, top each bun with a patty, then layer on dijon mustard, tomato slices, and arugula.
• Serve the fries with ketchup.
• Enjoy!
