Ingredients

• 400 grams Red kidney beans (cooked, rinsed, and drained)
• 250 grams Cremini or button mushrooms (finely chopped)
• 100 grams Rolled oats
• 1 piece Onion (small, finely diced)
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 50 grams Breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
• 4 pieces Burger buns
• 0 optional Burger toppings of choice (e.g., lettuce, tomato, avocado, ketchup)

Directions

Step 1

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil. Sauté the finely diced onion and minced garlic for 3 minutes until translucent.

Step 2

Add the chopped mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes until they release their moisture and become tender. Stir in the soy sauce, ground cumin, and smoked paprika. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large bowl, mash the cooked red kidney beans using a fork or potato masher, leaving some texture for bite. Add the sautéed mushroom mixture, rolled oats, breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until the mixture holds together when pressed.

Step 4

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form each portion into a patty about 1/2-inch thick.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with a small amount of olive oil if needed. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes per side until they are golden brown and heated through.

Step 6

Toast the burger buns (if desired) and assemble the veggie burgers with your preferred toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, avocado, or condiments like ketchup and mustard.

Step 7

Serve warm and enjoy your homemade Red Bean and Mushroom Veggie Burgers!
