TVP Veggie Burgers

Time: 15 minutes

Serves: 3 hungry eaters

1 tbsp vegetable oil

1 cup tvp (texturized vegetable protein)

1/4 oats

1/2 onion (diced)

2 cloves garlic (minced)

1 cup water (hot, almost boiling)

2 tbsp soy sauce

2 tbsp extra sauce (ketchup, sweet chili sauce, bbq sauce; optional)

1 tbsp peanut butter

1 tbsp nutritional yeast

Spices to taste (if you want a spicy flavour, try curry power and chili powder. If going for savoury, try oregano, rosemary, savoury)

Put water, spices, onion, garlic, oats and tvp in mixing bowl. Mix well and add soy sauce and peanut butter. Then add nutritional yeast and mix. Make into patties. The recipe should make 5-7 patties depending on how large you want to make them. If the consistency isn’t sticky enough, try adding a bit of flour or corn starch. Fry patties over medium heat in a pan. They should take about 5-10 minutes to cook, but it depends on what consistency you want.
