Hi hoes, let’s go. Today’s recipe is for the Easiest Vegan Portobello Mushroom Burgers. These vegan burgers are one of the easiest ones out there because they do not require you to make a Veggie Patty – the whole, meaty texture of Portobello Mushrooms alone are enough to be used as meat or veggie patty replacement. Cool story bro.
I start off with some de-stemmed Portobello Mushrooms, marinating them in a mixture of Oil, Balsamic Vinegar, Agave Nectar, Garlic, Black Pepper, Onion and Tamari. Whilst the mushrooms for your Vegan Mushroom Burgers are marinating, I cook up a batch of Red Onions nice and slow in a frying pan with a touch of Sugar, Salt and Thyme. This mixture cooks down to something very similar to Caramelized Onions, and provides so much fujking flavas to your burger. Some fancy sh*t there mate.
After your Mushrooms have sat and soaked up that lovely marinade, it’s time to bake them in the oven for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, top with Vegan Cheese (I use BioCheese Cheddar), grill to melt, and voila, your god damn Vegan Portobello Mushroom Burgers are ready. Serve tucked in a toasted bun with Avocado, Tomato, Your Sweet Onion Mixture and a side of Sweet Potato Fries and you’re set. So if you’re keen like Tom Keen (does anyone watch The Blacklist? He’s so damn hot..), scroll down and grab the full recipe for my Vegan Portobello Mushroom Burgers. Ciao!
