Smoked Tofu Burgers…with a sprinkle of Seaweed Nutrition Benefits. They are ideal for a fresh sunny meal and the perfect dish for a BBQ.
Ingredients
1 clove crushed garlic
1 small red onion, minced
1 cup diced Portobello mushrooms
¼ cup coriander (leaves only) minced
1 small red pepper (deseeded) minced
¼ tsp of paprika (smoked if preferred)
¼ tsp of turmeric
¼ tsp ginger powder
¼ tsp PureSea Natural or Smoked
2 cup light breadcrumbs
(Panko organic)
Sunflower or sesame oil for frying
Method
Remove from the heat and add to the tofu. Stir in the breadcrumbs and mix until you have consistency that sticks together well. (I prefer to use my hands to squeeze the mixture together). If too dry add a little water if too wet add some wholegrain flour. Shape mixture into 4 large burgers or 8 small ones.
In a heavy based frying pan, add the oil and set the heat to medium/low. Panfry the burgers till crisp and golden brown on both sides. Serve on a bed of fresh organic salad greens, top with some vegan mayonnaise and complement the dish with a side of sprouts and Arame sea vegetable.
