BEST VEGAN BURGER RECIPE

Best Vegan burger Recipe you say!? OH Yah I say! These burgers are made with a lot of flavour and a lot of love.
Yup- definitely a labour of love. I have been trying to make an amazing vegan burger for ages now! and …I think I nailed it!! Thank you Vegan Burger Gods! I was seriously about to throw in the towel.

These Veggie Burgers are easy to make and freeze beautifully .
I start by soaking my whole grain bulgur in boiling water for at least 30 minutes, set that aside.Next get your food processor in action. I add the mushrooms in three batches, you want the size pretty small but not all mush.(See video below) Then start adding all your seasonings and liquids. When your bulgur wheat, is ready drain it well, toss it in and give it all a mix.
Lastly incorporate your Vital Wheat Gluten and then mix by hand for 3-5 minutes. If your mix seems a little wet, its all good !

You can cook these patties in advance, chill in fridge ( for later) or freeze then reheat on bbq, oven or frying pan. They will be just as moist and delicious !!
