If you haven’t had a homemade veggie burger, you’re in for a treat. And just wait until you try the barbecue aioli, which is so easy to make with just two ingredients.
What you need:
For the burgers:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup finely chopped onions
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 (16-ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
2 cups firm tofu
1 cup cooked brown rice
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1⁄3 cup nutritional yeast
1⁄2 cup panko-style breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 tablespoons liquid smoke
1 teaspoon salt
1⁄4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1⁄2 cup canola oil, for frying
8 burger buns
2 tomatoes, sliced
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons pickles, sliced
8 lettuce leaves
For the barbecue aioli:
1⁄4 cup barbecue sauce
1⁄2 cup vegan mayonnaise
What you do:
- In a small frying pan over medium heat, add olive oil. Sauté onion and garlic until onions are translucent, for about 5 minutes. Set aside and let cool.
- In a food processor, place chickpeas and pulse a few times. Leave some chickpeas whole for texture. Transfer to a large bowl. In the same food processor bowl, process tofu until crumbled. Add cooked rice and process until well mixed. Combine with chickpeas.
- Add onion mixture, oregano, nutritional yeast, breadcrumbs, soy sauce, liquid smoke, salt, and cayenne pepper to the bowl and mix well.
- Using a 1⁄2 cup measuring cup, add mixture and form patties. If frying patties, in a frying pan over medium-high heat, heat canola oil. Fry burgers until golden brown, about 3 minutes each side. Alternatively, brush each side with oil and grill until charred, 3 to 5 minutes per side on a grill.
- To make the barbecue aioli, in a small bowl, combine barbecue sauce and mayonnaise and whisk well until mixed.
- To assemble burgers, spread some barbecue aioli on bun, and top with patty, tomato, red onion slices, pickles, and lettuce. Serve warm.
