Onion Burgers
Click to print
In a sauce pot;
1 c. water
1 vegetable bouillon cubes
3/4 c. textured vegetable protein (TVP) chunks
1 t. browning sauce
1 T. vegetable flakes (dried)
Bring to a boil, cover, remove from heat and let set for ten minutes stirring frequently. Un-cover and let cool for 15 minutes. Measure into dough mixer or bread machine;

3/4 c. vital wheat gluten
1/2 t. black pepper
1/2 t. ground sage
2 t. fresh cilantro, chopped
add TVP mixture to dry ingredients and mix 10 minutes. Saute until lightly brown then add and mix another 5 minutes;

3 T. vegetable oil
1/2 c. minced onion
1 t. minced garlic
Grind the mixture in food grinder with coarse attachment. Grinding isn’t absolutely necessary, but I recommend it so that the consistency is a little smoother. If you don’t grind it, I recommend that you use the regular size TVP rather than the chunks.

Make into patties and bake at 400’ on a lightly oiled or sprayed sheet tray for 12 - 15 minutes each side.
