How to Make Vegan Burgers

Many people today are very conscious of what they eat. Vegetarians have gained quite a following and there are many food lines coming out that are geared specifically to them. You can even find “veggie menus” in many restaurants today. Here is a way to have some Vegan burgers at home that you can make yourself.

Ingredients for vegan burgers:

• 1 carrot, grated and peeled


• 6 mushrooms, chopped finely


• 1 small potato, grated and peeled


• 1 egg white


• 1 clove garlic, finely chopped


• 2 scallions, chopped finely


• 1 cup of plain yogurt


• 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh mint


• 3 tablespoons of olive oil


• 1/2 red bell pepper, finely chopped


• 1 teaspoon of cumin


• Dash of cayenne pepper


• 3/4 cup of fresh corn kernels or frozen, thawed


• 1/2 cup of chopped fresh spinach


• Salt and pepper


• 1/2 cup of fresh bread crumbs
  
  
  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil on medium high heat.
  
  
  2. Stir in the mushrooms, scallions, bell pepper and corn.
  
  
  3. Allow cooking for 3-4 minutes.
  
  
  4. Add in the cumin, cayenne and garlic and cook for approximately 30 seconds.
  
  
  5. Take away from the heat and stir in your spinach.
  
  
  6. Put the potato and carrot into the mix and mix them together well.
  
  
  7. Place in the egg white and season with salt and pepper to you own taste requirements.

  9. When you are ready to eat place about 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a non-stick pan and cook until they have a golden look on each side or until they reach the hardness you enjoy.
