A blog dedicated to testing the recipes from "1000 Vegan Recipes" by Robin Robertson, but with a twist. My personal challenge is to make the recipes with no added oil, and using only whole grains.
The "Tempeh Tantrum Burgers" (page 118) are the
first listed in the "Burgers" section, and the 9th one I've tried so
far out of a total of 11. I've totally enjoyed this section, as I'm a big fan
of veggie burgers in general, and happy to have so many options that don't
utilize TVP (texturized vegetable proteins, usually soy). I really liked this
preparation, it was hearty and chewy, and held up well on a bun (along with all
the assorted condiments added afterwards). Along with tempeh, the burgers are
made with onion, walnuts, oats, and assorted seasonings. Everything is combined
in a food processor and shaped into patties (again, as is usually the case, the
recipe calls for 4 patties, but I got 6, as I like them a bit thinner). The
recipe instructions say to fry the patties in 3 tablespoons of oil, but I omitted
the oil completely and just browned them in my non-stick skillet. These will
definitely be showing up on my menu again.
