A perfect Burger
Makes 8 thin, or 6 thick, patties


INGREDIENTS:
4 tbsp oil
1 onion, small dice
2 cloves of garlic, minced
2 tsp ground fennel seed
1 tsp sage
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp parsley
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup TVP
2 tbsp instant tapioca
1 cup water
1 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 cup cooked chickpeas, finely mashed
1/2 cup instant gluten flour
1/4 cup bread crumbs

METHOD:

1. Heat oil over medium heat in a frying pan. Saute onions and garlic until onions are translucent, about 5 mins.
2. Add in spices and fry for 1 min. Add in TVP and tapioca and mix well.
3. Add in water, soy sauce, and HP sauce (if using). Stir until all water is absorbed and TVP is soft. Remove from heat, transfer to a bowl, and let cool. (I put mine in the freezer and stirred it every few mins to speed up the process).
4. Once TVP mixture is cooled, mix in chickpeas, then flour and bread crumbs. Knead for a few mins until it all comes together.
5. Form into patties (I like to press it into a metal ring for perfect burgers) and fry in a small amount of oil over medium heat for 5 mins per side.
