1

Prepare the burger patty

In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of cooked quinoa, 1 can of black beans (mashed), 1/2 cup of grated carrots, 1/4 cup of chopped onions, 2 minced garlic cloves, 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon each of paprika and cumin. Mix well until the ingredients are fully combined.

2

Shape and refrigerate the patty

Form the burger mixture into patties, about 1/2 inch thick and 4 inches in diameter. Place the patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

3

Cook the burger patty

Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side until they are nicely browned and crispy.

4

Toast the burger buns

While the patties are cooking, toast the burger buns by placing them, cut-side down, in a separate skillet over medium-high heat. Toast until they are golden brown and slightly crispy.

5

Assemble the burger

Spread a generous amount of vegan mayo or your favorite sauce on the bottom half of the toasted bun. Add a lettuce leaf, a tomato slice, and a cooked burger patty. Top it off with your favorite toppings, such as avocado, caramelized onions, or vegan cheese. Place the top bun on and gently press it down.

6

Serve and enjoy

Serve the Fancy Vegan Burger to your meat-loving friends and family, and watch their taste buds dance with joy! Enjoy the compliments and the satisfaction of knowing that you've created a delicious plant-based burger.
