About this recipe

Tofu and sesame burgers are a plant-based meal in a bun, built around patties made with extra-firm tofu, finely ground oats, and sesame seeds. The tofu provides a mild base, while the oats and ground flaxseed bind the mixture, and the sesame adds a nutty note. Pressing the tofu thoroughly and chilling the patties for 20 minutes helps them retain their shape. Pan-fry the patties until well browned and serve right away with tomato in warm buns.

Ingredients

Servings: 4

  • 360 g extra-firm plain tofu

  • 55 g finely ground oats

  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed

  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1 tablespoon canola oil

  • 4 burger buns

  • 1 tomato

  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Steps

  1. Press the tofu very thoroughly in a clean kitchen towel or with a tofu press, then crumble it with a fork. Combine it with the finely ground oats, ground flaxseed, soy sauce, and smoked paprika; do not soak the flaxseed first.

  2. Form four even patties, press the sesame seeds into their surfaces, and chill for 20 minutes.

  3. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the patties for 4 minutes per side, turning them only once, until browned and firm.

  4. Split the buns and warm them cut-side down in a dry skillet for 2 minutes. Cut the tomato into four slices.

  5. Place a tofu patty and a slice of tomato in each bun. Serve right away.
