I wish that we kept better track of the exact measurements of the ingredients in these burgers, because they were FANTASTIC. Honestly, I don't think the measurements matter too much - if you mix together and cook the ingredients listed below, good things will probably happen. Next time we invent a recipe, we'll try to be a bit more precise.
Veggie Burger Patties
1 mashed sweet potato
1 cup or so cooked barley
1 grated carrot
bread crumbs
3-4 finely chopped mushrooms
garlic powder
Fresh herbs (a couple chives, a bit of thyme and rosemary)
Sea salt and Italian herb seasoning mixture
We mixed the above together and baked them at 350 F until they firmed up. Christopher ate the leftovers for lunch today and said they were even better grilled in a frying pan, giving them a nicer crust on the outside with a soft interior.
Also, I've decided that barely is my new favourite grain. Why do I always forget about it!?
Do you like veggie burgers? Have you ever made your own? Do you like barely?
