This is an interesting and addictive veggie burger. There is a little natural foods drive-in near where i live that serves something like this.I talked to a lady who at one time worked at the drive-in and she told me that they used the left over carrot pulp from making carrot juice in the burger. After years of trying to figure out the ingredients i came up with this, and it is pretty close. I hope you like it. Don't be put off by the long list of ingredients, it goes together quickly and freezes well uncooked. I have guessed at the prep and cooking time. I have not timed myself making this. Ingredients:
1 cup shelled raw walnuts |
1 cup raw cashews |
1 cup raw sunflower seeds |
1 cup shelled raw almonds |
1 cup chopped celery |
1 cup carrot, pulp (leftover after making carrot juice) |
1 cup chopped onion |
2 -3 cloves minced garlic |
1 tablespoon chopped parsley |
1 1/2 tablespoons minced sage |
1/2 cup whey powder |
2 large eggs |
1/4 teaspoon mustard powder |
1/4 teaspoon curry powder |
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1 teaspoon mild chili powder |
2 -3 tablespoons olive oil (for frying burgers) |
Directions:
1. place walnuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, celery, carrot pulp, onion, garlic cloves, parsley, and sage in bowl of food processor and pulse until you have a medium fine meal consistancy.
2. Do not pulse so long as to make nut butter.
3. You want to have something to chew on.
4. Dump the nut mixture into a mixing bowl and add the whey powder, eggs, dry mustard powder, curry powder, poultry seasoning, cumin,and mild chili powder.
5. Mix the ingredients together until well incorporated.
6. Form into 12 small patties or 6 large.
7. Fry in a pan over medium heat until brown on each side.
8. Serve as is or on buns with your favorite burger toppings.
