Peanut And Tofu Cutlets Burger Patties Recipes

PEANUT BUTTER BURGER

Steps:

• Form the ground beef into six patties, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook in a large skillet or nonstick pan to desired doneness, 8 to 10 minutes for medium to medium-well. Add the pepper jack cheese before finished to melt, followed by the bacon. Butter both sides of the buns and toast in a pan.
• Spread the creamy peanut butter on the tops and bottoms of the buns. Drizzle the sriracha sauce on the bun tops and drizzle Chipotle Mayonnaise on the bun bottoms. Place cooked patties on the bun bottoms, then top each with two slices of tomatoes, two red onion slices and a half leaf of romaine lettuce.
• Place chipotles and adobo, mayonnaise, lemon juice, chipotle powder, salt, pepper and garlic into a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. This keeps in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

PEANUT BUTTER BURGER

Steps:

• Combine the beef with the sea salt, seasoning salt, pepper and garlic. Create 10 beef balls. Place the balls individually between waxed paper and slightly press the center to create your patties. Place the patties on a lined cookie sheet, ready to be placed on the grill.
• On the stove, fry the bacon to desired texture over medium-heat.
• Turn your chargrill to medium-high and place the burgers on it once it is hot. Cook the first side until the edges are caramelized and browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip the burgers and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes. Be careful not to pierce the meat or overcook. Set aside and let them rest for another 3 to 5 minutes. Before you turn off the grill, lightly toast the white burger buns.
• Dress each side of the white burger buns with creamy peanut butter and 2 slices American cheese. Place the burgers on top of the cheese and add the cooked bacon.

PEANUT AND TOFU CUTLETS/ BURGER PATTIES

Steps:

• Cook the rice according to the instructions on the packet, until tender. Drain the rice.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large, heavy frypan and cook off the onion and garlic over a low heat, stir occassionally, for about 5 minutes. The onion should be softened and golden.
• Meanwhile, spread out the peanuts on a baking sheet and toast under a preheated grill (broiler) for a few minutes, until browned. Alternately, you can toast the peanuts using a dry pan on the stove top- keep them moving while heating.
• Place the toasted peanuts, onion, garlic, rice, crumbled tofu, coriander and parsley (can use just 1/2 cup or either cilantro or parsley if wished) in a food processor. Add a little salt and pepper to seson if desired. Process until the mixture forms a thick paste. If it is too thick, add a little water.
• Divide the mixture into eight equal portions and form each mound into a cutlet, flat square or burger shape.
• Heat the olive oil on a large, heavy frypan.
• Add the cutlets and cook for about 5-10 minutes on each side, until they turn golden brown and are heated through. THis step can be done in two batches if needed.
• Drain the cutlets on kitchen paper. Can be kept warm in the oven if cooking in two or more batches.
• Serve and enjoy.

CHICKEN AND VEGETABLE BURGER PATTIES

Steps:

• Put the Cruskits in the food processor and grind to a fine breadcrumb consistency. Tip the crumbs into a bowl.
• Put the rest of the ingredients except the chicken into the food processor and pulse until finely chopped.
• Note: Resist the temptation to do the Cruskits and vegetables together. You'll end up with a gluggy mess that is difficult to get out of the food processor.
• Add the chicken and vegetables to the crumbs and mix together quickly. The crumbs absorb the liquid and become sticky so the quicker you can work, the easier it is to combine everything evenly. I get into it with my hands.
• Divide into 4 large patties or 8 small ones, about 1.5 to 2 cm thick. Grill for 7 minutes on each side.
• Serve in a pita bread with lettuce and tomato or serve as a main dish with vegetables.
• These patties can also be baked in a hot oven. I also make them into meatballs and bake them then freeze them. They can be added to stock and bok choy for a very quick meal.

HERBED BURGER PATTIES

Steps:

• Freeze the butter.
• Separate out the beef in a mixing bowl so it's grainy.
• Combine all herbs in a second bowl.
• Grate the frozen butter into the beef.
• Mix in herbs, and combine all ingredients loosely.
• Shape mixture into 4 large round pattiess 1cm thick. Make a depression in the centre of each.
• Grill patties 7-10 minutes (depending on how well-done you like your burger!).

HOMEMADE CHEESE-STUFFED BURGER PATTIES

Steps:

• Put all the ingredients into a large mixing bowl, except for the cheese. Mix thoroughly using your hands, ensuring the ingredients are well distributed.
• Cut cheese into disks, 3/4" thick. You can use any cheese of your choice, my favourites are Camembert, Brie and Monterey Jack.
• Divide mixture into 4 portions. Shape each portion into a burger patty, approximately 2" thick.
• Using a spoon, scoop out approximately 1 tbsp meat from the middle of the patty for the pocket, being careful not to scoop all the way through to the bottom (leave 1/2" of meat for the base of the pocket). Reserve the scooped meat.
• Place cheese in the pocket and cover with the reserved meat, pinching the sides to close and smooth to flatten.
• Cook on a grill for approximately 7 minutes on each side to allow the cheese to melt, or to desired doneness.
• Serve as you would a regular burger, or on its own with side dishes.

TOFU AND VEGGIES IN PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Saute broccoli, red bell pepper, mushrooms and tofu for 5 minutes.
• In a small bowl combine peanut butter, hot water, vinegar, soy sauce, molasses and cayenne pepper. Pour over vegetables and tofu. Simmer for 3 to 5 minutes, or until vegetables are tender crisp.

SOY BURGER PATTIES

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in medium-sized bowl (be sure to crumble the bouillon cube); let sit for 5 minutes so liquid is absorbed.
• Heat oil in skillet.
• Form patties about the size and thickness of your palm; or, drop large spoonfull of mixture into oil and flatten with spatula.
• Fry patties on both sides until golden.
• Serve as entree or with buns.
