• In a large bowl, combine the pinto beans, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce, and mash with a potato masher. Stir in the mushrooms.

TEMPURA MUSHROOM BURGERS

Steps:

• For the charred scallion mayo: Combine the Donkey Sauce and scallions in a small bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• For the fried oyster mushrooms: Heat 3 to 4 inches of oil in a Dutch oven to 375 degrees F. Carefully dredge the mushroom in flour ensuring it gets in between the stems. Shake off excess.
• Mix the flours together in a large bowl and make a well in the center. Add the eggs to the center and whisk to combine completely. Whisk in the seltzer water. Season with salt. Dip the mushrooms into the batter and then into the fryer. Fry, turning halfway through and holding under the oil, until golden, about 4 minutes. Remove to a wire rack.
• For the burgers: Brush the cut sides of the ciabatta with the garlic butter and toast until golden brown. Smear both sides with the charred scallion mayo. Combine the cabbages with the rice vinegar, olive oil, chiles, charred scallions, garlic, mustard, salt and pepper in a medium bowl and mix until tender. Place a fried mushroom on the base bun, top with half the dressed slaw, hit with juice of half the lemon and place the top half of bun on top. Repeat with the other burger.
• Combine the mayonnaise, roasted garlic puree, mustard, salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce in a medium bowl. Refrigerate for 30 minutes before using.

MUSHROOM VEGGIE BURGER

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; add mushrooms, onion, and garlic to the hot oil and season with salt, black pepper, and oregano. Cook and stir mushroom mixture until mushrooms have given up their juice and the juice has almost evaporated, about 10 minutes. Transfer cooked mushrooms to a cutting board and chop into small chunks with a knife.
• Transfer mushrooms to a large bowl. Mix in rolled oats and bread crumbs; taste for salt and black pepper and add more to taste. Stir Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese into the mixture, followed by eggs. Let mixture stand for the crumbs to soak up excess liquid, about 15 minutes. (At this point you can refrigerate the mixture to cook later if desired.) Moisten hands with a little vegetable oil or water, pick up about 1/4 cup of mixture, and form into burgers.
• Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and pan-fry burgers until browned and cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes.
