Asian Garden Veggie Patties Recipes

GARDENBURGER ORIGINAL VEGGIE PATTY (COPYCAT)

Steps:

• Add 1/4 cup water to the bulgur wheat in a small bowl and let it sit for 60 minutes. The wheat will double in size.
• Steam the quartered mushrooms for about 10 minutes, or until tender. Remove the mushrooms and put onion in steamer. Steam onions for 10 minutes, until translucent. Keep these two ingredients separate and set aside.
• Add 1/2 cup water to the oats, and soak 10 minutes, until soft.
• Drain excess water from bulgur and oats. Then combine grains with the steamed mushrooms, onions, rice, cheeses and spices in a food processor. Pulse 4 or 5 times to chop finely, but not puree. You want a coarse texture, with chunks of grain, mushroom and cheese that you can see.
• Pour the mixture into a bowl with the steamed mushrooms and cornstarch. Mix well.
• Preheat oven to 300°F and set a large skillet over medium low heat.
• Spray the skillet with the cooking spray. Measure 1/2 cup at a time of the burger mixture and shape into a 4" patty, about 1/2" thick. Cook the patties about 2-4 minutes per side, until light brown.
• When all the patties have been cooked, arrange them on a baking sheet and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, turning them halfway through cooking time. Serve immediately, or freeze.
• If freezing, you can reheat several ways. Spread a light coating of olive oil spray on each side and heat in a pan over medium heat 3-4 minutes for each side, until hot in the middle. If using the grill, spray each side with oil and cook over low flame. Cook 3 to 4 minutes per side. You may also microwave for 30-35 seconds, then place in toaster and cook on medium heat till hot in the center. Enjoy!

• Place the patties on the buns along with the Portobello Bacon, Napa Slaw and Hot Chinese Mustard Aioli.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Fit a sheet tray with a wire rack.
• Combine the olive oil, soy sauce and rice vinegar in a medium bowl. Add the mushrooms and toss to coat.
• Combine the granulated garlic, brown sugar, paprika and salt on a plate and mix to combine. Press both sides of each mushroom slice in the spice mixture, then place on the prepared sheet tray.
• Bake until dried, crispy and deep golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Toss together the cabbage, carrots, Fresno and green onions in a large bowl.
• Combine the vinegar, soy sauce, granulated sugar and sesame oil in a small bowl and stir until the sugar dissolves, then pour over the cabbage mixture. Toss until the slaw is coated, then let sit at room temperature to let the flavors meld, 30 minutes.
