Directions:

In a large frying pan, heat 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil and saute the onions until soft.
Add chopped mushrooms and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
Set aside.
In a food processor, blend 8 oz tofu with garlic and basil.
Blend until smooth.
Transfer to a medium mixing bowl and add sauted onion/mushroom mixture, 1 and 1/2 cups bread crumbs, tomato paste, balsamic vinegar and red pepper flakes.
Grate the remaining tofu-add to the mixing bowl.
Stir well to combine.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Divide mixture into 6 patties-press together well.
Coat each patty well with the remaining 1 cup bread crumbs.
Add remaining olive oil to the same skillet you used to saute the onion/mushroom mixture.
Over medium heat to medium high heat fry patties 4-5 minutes on each side.
Be gentle when you flip them-tofu burgers tend to fall apart.
Drain on paper towels, salt and pepper to taste.
These are quite nice on crusty rolls with a garlic mayo, spinach, red onion rings and slivered sun dried tomatoes(winter) or garden fresh slices of tomato.
