Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Button mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 100 grams Breadcrumbs
- 1 Egg
- 100 grams Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 4 Soft potato buns
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 1 Tomato
- 4 slices Dill pickles
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Yellow mustard
Instructions
Clean and finely chop the mushrooms. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chopped mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for about 8 minutes, until the mushrooms are deeply browned and most of the moisture has evaporated. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sautéed mushrooms, breadcrumbs, egg, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until combined.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty. Make sure they hold together by pressing firmly.
In a large frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4 minutes on each side, or until crispy and golden brown.
While the patties are cooking, prepare the sauce by mixing mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard in a small bowl.
Slice the tomato into thick slices and prepare the lettuce leaves by washing and drying them completely.
Toast the potato buns slightly on a separate pan or in the oven under the broiler.
To assemble the burger, generously spread the bottom bun with the prepared sauce. Place a lettuce leaf over the sauce, followed by a cooked mushroom patty.
Top the patty with a slice of tomato and a pickle slice, then add the top bun.
Repeat the assembly for the remaining burgers and serve immediately.
