Burger lovers take note - this super tasty and quick to prepare "mushroom burger" recipe by Kenneth van Puijenbroek is not to be missed! This delicious vegetarian recipe is perfectly rounded off by the combination of the mushroom patty with the fantastic truffle mayonnaise. Here's how it works:
Prepare the barbecue for direct and indirect grilling at 150 - 160 °C (half/half)
Place the pan over the direct part of the grill to heat up.
Finely chop the shallot and garlic, add to the hot pan with a dash of olive oil and fry. After 5 minutes, add the sliced mushrooms and fry.
After 10 minutes, remove the mushroom mixture from the grill and place in a sieve to drain off the liquid. Then place the mixture in a food processor and chop and squeeze again to obtain as dry a mixture as possible.
Place the cleaned pan over the direct part of the grill again to heat up.
And place the buns over the indirect part of the grill. Remove the buns from the grill when they are golden brown.
Put the mushroom mixture in a mixing bowl and season with rub, pepper and salt to taste, beat the egg and add half of it to the mushroom mixture, add 5 tablespoons of breadcrumbs and mix everything well.
Form 2 burgers from the mixture and place in the fridge for about 15 minutes to firm up.
Fry the mushroom burger patties in a pan with a dash of oil until golden brown on both sides.
Add some grated Parmesan cheese to the patties and place the pan on the indirect part of the grill and allow the cheese to melt. This is best done under a MONOLITH cloche - the cheese melts faster and the patty stays nice and juicy!
Cut open the buns, spread the base with truffle mayonnaise and place some lettuce on top. Spread the top of the patty with truffle mayonnaise too, put the lid on and you're done!
Enjoy your meal!
