Today we're making a textured soy burger that's messy in the best way and delicious in every single bite. We combine textured soy protein with onion and assemble our burger on a brioche bun with avocado, tomato, and arugula: a homemade recipe we can make together to shake up our weeknight dinners.

Prep: 55 minCook: 10 minServes: 4

Ingredients

Here are the ingredients you'll need

  • 1 onion
  • 120g coarse textured soy protein
  • Low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 pinch of turmeric
  • 1 tablespoon chickpea or red lentil flour
  • Brioche burger buns
  • 1/2 ripe tomato

Step by step

Method

  1. 1Soak the textured soy protein in water with a generous splash of soy sauce.
  2. 2Once it is thoroughly softened, drain well and blitz it in the food processor.
  3. 3Add the onion, turmeric, and chickpea flour, then pulse again to combine.
  4. 4Transfer the mixture to a bowl and pop it in the fridge to rest for at least 30min.
  5. 5After 30min, shape the mixture into patties and place one in a skillet with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
  6. 6Cook on one side and flip gently so it doesn't break, as it is quite delicate.
  7. 7Once cooked through, assemble inside the brioche bun with the rest of the ingredients.
  8. 8All done! Our TEXTURED SOY BURGER is ready to enjoy.
