These are veggie burgers with a kick! Shredded carrots and zucchini are combined with tofu, onion, celery, egg, bread crumbs, basil and curry paste. Serve on a bun, if desired. Ingredients:
1 carrot, shredded |
1 zucchini, shredded |
1 (10 ounce) package silken tofu |
1 small yellow onion, diced |
1 celery, finely chopped |
1 egg, lightly beaten |
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs |
2 tablespoons red thai curry paste |
1/3 cup fresh basil leaves |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
Directions:
1. Press carrot and zucchini between paper towels to remove excess moisture. In a medium bowl combine carrots, zucchini, tofu, onion, celery, egg, bread crumbs and curry paste.
2. Chop 2/3 of the basil and add it to the tofu mixture. Mix well and form into 4 patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
3. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook patties for 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Serve with remaining basil leaves.
