Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 12 patties

Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons brown rice or spelt flour
1 tablespoon naturally brewed soy sauce (shoyu or wheat-free tamari)
1 1/2 cups warm vegetable stock or plain soy milk
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
1/2 teaspoon dried sage
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup finely chopped raw nuts
1 cup cooked brown rice or other whole grain
1 cup minced shiitake or button mushrooms

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    1. Place a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the oil, flour, and soy sauce. Whisk well to combine.

    Step 2

    2. Whisk in vegetable stock or soy milk and cook until thickened, continuing to whisk, about 2 minutes.

    Step 3

    3. Remove from heat and add the oats, onion, sage, thyme, nuts, rice, and mushrooms. Stir well to combine and transfer entire contents to a medium mixing bowl. Allow to set at room temperature for 10 minutes, then refrigerate until cool enough to handle, about 20 minutes.

    Step 4

    4. Preheat oven to 350°F.

    Step 5

    5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Step 6

    6. Remove the mixture from refrigerator, and scoop 1/4 cup of mixture into a patty. Place on the lined baking sheet, and continue to scoop mixture into patties until done.

    Step 7

    7. Bake for 20 minutes, and serve. If freezing, wrap each patty individually in plastic wrap.

Smoky Tofu Shakshuka
This vegan version of the classic North African scramble uses soft silken tofu instead of eggs without any sacrifice of flavor.
Crispy Oyster Mushroom Skewers With Bok Choy Salad
Oyster mushrooms are a strong all-rounder in the kitchen, seeming to straddle both plant and meat worlds in what they look and taste like when cooked. Here they’re coated in a marinade my mother used to use when cooking Chinese food at home—honey, soy, garlic and ginger—and roasted until golden, crisp, and juicy.
Zucchini, Pea, and Bulgur Pilaf
This fragrant salad uses bulgur wheat as its base, an endlessly versatile, slightly chewy grain that’s very popular throughout the eastern Mediterranean.
Charred Vegetable Ragù
This sauce is slightly magical. The texture cloaks pasta much like a traditional meat sauce does, and the flavors are deep and rich, but it’s actually vegan!
Crispy Tofu With Scallion-Ginger Sauce
The tofu is crunchy on the outside, in part thanks to a panko-studded exterior, and squishy-in-a-good-way on the inside. It also comes together in 20 minutes.
Black Sesame Tofu “Basque” Cheesecake
There are many things that appeal about a Basque cheesecake—it's crustless (one less job) and is meant to look “rustic” with its wrinkled and jagged sides.
Smothered Italian Sausage
This is what I call a fridge-eater recipe. The key here is getting a nice sear on the sausage and cooking the tomato down until it coats the sausage and vegetables well.
Fufu
Fufu is a dish that has been passed down through many generations and is seen as a symbol of Ghanaian identity and heritage. Making fufu traditionally is a very laborious task; this recipe mimics some of that hard work but with a few home-cook hacks that make for a far easier time.
