Black Bean And Mushroom Burgers Recipes

BLACK BEAN MUSHROOM BURGER

Steps:

• Preheat over to 375 degrees.
• Soak sun-dried tomatoes in about 1/2 cup hot water for 10 minutes. Drain. In the meantime, heat the 1/4 cup water over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add onion and cook until golden, about 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in mushrooms, garlic, cumin, and cook until mushrooms have released their juices, about 4 to 6 minutes. Add red wine and tamari and cook to reduce in half. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
• Tear toasted bread into pieces and place in a food processor. Process until broken down into crumbs. Pour the crumbs into a medium bowl. Add the mushroom mixture and beans to the food processor along with the sun-dried tomatoes; pulse until combined, but not smooth. Leave some chunky bits. Scoop mixture into the bowl with the bread crumbs; season with salt and pepper.
• Mix ingredients together and divide into 2 equal portions. With dampened hands, shape each portion into four patties, about 3 1/2" each for 8 patties. Place burgers on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brown burgers on one side, about 10 minutes. Flip to brown on the other side for another 10, watching to make sure they don't overcook.
• Enjoy with all of the burger fixins'.

Steps:

• Place flaxseed, Worcestershire sauce, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, cumin, pepper, mushrooms, half of the beans, egg, and garlic in a food processor; process 1 minute or until almost smooth. Place bean mixture in a bowl; stir in remaining half of beans and panko.
• Heat oil in a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high. Fill a 1/2-cup measure with bean mixture; add to pan. Repeat procedure 3 times to form 4 patties. Flatten patties slightly with the back of a spatula. Cook 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until browned.
• Combine remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, juice, and avocado in a bowl, mashing with a fork. Stir in yogurt and 1 tablespoon water. Divide patties among bottom halves of buns; top evenly with avocado mixture, cabbage, and top halves of buns.

Steps:

• Soak the mushrooms in hot water for 5 to 10 minutes; roughly chop.
• Put the mushrooms, beans, garlic, oats, spices and soy sauce in a food processor with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Let the machine run until the mixture is combined, not puréed, about 30 seconds. (Or use a potato masher.) Add oats to thicken, or liquid to thin, as needed.
• Stir in the cilantro, and let sit for 5 minutes.
• Shape into 4 large or 8 small patties; let them sit for 5 minutes.
• Put the oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook until crisp on one side, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until the burgers are crisp on the other side, another 5 minutes or so. Serve with the usual fixings.

BLACK BEAN BURGER WITH MUSHROOM BUN

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
• Use a small spoon to remove the stems and gills from the mushrooms. Brush them all over with 4 tablespoons of the oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast on a baking sheet cap-side up until the mushrooms have released most of their liquid and are tender, about 20 minutes, flipping halfway through. Season liberally with salt and pepper.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Line a large plate or a small baking sheet with paper towels.
• Add the oats, bell pepper, chopped onions, garlic, chili powder, smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and a couple grinds of pepper to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add the beans and pulse until the mixture is blended enough so that it sticks together when you squeeze a small amount of it in the palm of your hand but not be pureed. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir with a rubber spatula to evenly mix the ingredients. Divide into 4 equal portions and form into 3-inch patties about 1/2-inch thick. Place the formed patties on the prepared baking sheet.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick pan or cast-iron skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Once the oil is lightly shimmering, carefully lay the patties in the oil and cook until browned on the first side, 4 to 5 minutes. Use a spatula to carefully flip the patties and cook on the second side until browned and warmed through, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the patties to the prepared plate to absorb any excess oil.
• Serve each patty on top of a mushroom bun (cap-side down) and layer with ketchup, butter lettuce, tomatoes and onion slices.

BLACK BEAN AND MUSHROOM BURGERS

Steps:

• Get your grill going with a medium-hot fire.
• Lightly oil a vegetable grill rack and put it in place.
• Saute your onions in a skillet on the stove, cooking until they are golden brown - about 4 minutes.
• Add the mushrooms, garlic and cumin. Cook until the mushrooms have released their juices - about 5 minutes.
• Spoon the mixture into the food processor. Add the beans and cilantro and process briefly - you want it mixed but still chunky.
• Put this mixture into a bowl and stir in the goat cheese if you are using it. Also add the bread crumbs. Season with salt and pepper and mix.
• Form into patties.
• Brush both sides of the patties with oil or spray with Pam to insure they don't stick to the grill.
• Grill until crisp and heated through, about 5 minutes per side.
• Serve. Salsa makes a great condiment for these burgers!
