TOTALLY TOFU

Tofu Burgers
Makes 8 burgers
Once cooked, these tasty burgers freeze well.


Ingredients:

1 block/285g/10½oz firm tofu
50g/2oz bulgar or 100g/4oz cooked millet or rice
2 fl oz/50ml hot water
1 small onion, very finely chopped
50g/2oz mushrooms, very finely chopped
50g/2oz carrot, grated
1 vegetable stock cube, crumbled
2 tbsp soya sauce
1 tsp dried mixed herbs or 2tsp any fresh herb, coriander, dill etc.
2 tbsp wholewheat flour plus a little extra for coating.

Method:

1 Break up the tofu with your fingers into very small pieces.

2 Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl and squeeze well to shape into burgers.
(As the mixture is very sticky it will help if you dip your hands and utensils in cold water).

3 Refrigerate for an hour or two.

4 For a crisp coating, toss the burgers in a little wholewheat flour before frying.

5 Deep fry the burgers in oil, a few at a time.

6 Drain well and serve hot or cold.

NOTE: it is most important to fry tne burgers in very hot oil to avoid disintegration.
