Anyone have the "secret" recipe of the Morning Star veggie burgers?
I really like the Morning Star veggie burgers, but they're getting too expensive - I can't afford them anymore.
I've tried several recipes for veggie burgers, but none of them turned out good enough to be worth the hassle.
So I'm wondering if anyone has the secret recipe to duplicate the Morning Star veggie patties so I can make them myself.
Answers:
I don't have the secret recipe. Although, this is a close and yet really good one. try this...
Ingredients:
3 cups water
2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
1&1/2 cups bulgur
2 Tbsp vegetable oil (I use non-stick spray)
1/2 cup scallions, chopped
1/2 cup grated carrots
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup tahini
2 Tbsp tomato paste
2 Tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp Dijon mustard
dash black pepper
Bring the water to boil. In another heavy pan or skillet that has a cover, heat the oil (or just use pan spray) on medium to medium-high heat and sauté the garlic and the bulgur for about 2 minutes (uncovered), stirring very frequently. Add the boiling water and bring the mixture to a boil, cover, reduce the heat to low, and let the bulgur simmer for about 15-20 minutes until all of the liquid has been absorbed and the bulgur is soft but still chewy.
When the bulgur is ready, stir in the rest of the ingredients. When the mixture is cool enough to handle, form it into 6-8 patties using moistened hands (it’s sticky). The patties may either be baked in a preheated 375 degree F oven on an oiled sheet for about 20 minutes, or they may be fried in an oiled heavy skillet on medium-low heat for about 10 minutes, flipping half-way through.
Serve on buns with your favorite burger toppings, or even just a splash of soy sauce.
These were the first veggie burgers I ever tasted, and I loved'em right from the start! Really tasty! They are not very solidly held together, though, so you really won't be able to throw them right out on the grill. I've never tried to freeze them, but left-overs hold a few days in the fridge.
