PERFECT VEGGIE BURGERS

Steps:

• Prepare the barley as the label directs. Let cool completely.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, celery and a pinch of salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 12 to 14 minutes. Add the garlic, 3 tablespoons barbecue sauce and the carrot; cook, stirring, until the mixture dries out slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a food processor and let cool completely.
• Add the barley, beans, breadcrumbs, walnuts, soy sauce, egg whites, parsley and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the food processor. Pulse until finely ground with some chunks. Form into six 4-inch-wide, 1/2-inch-thick patties and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover and refrigerate until firm, 1 to 4 hours.
• Preheat the broiler. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook the patties until golden brown, about 6 minutes per side. Meanwhile, place the buns, cut-side up, on a broiler pan and broil until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve the patties on the buns; top with the remaining 2 tablespoons barbecue sauce and onion rings.

• The day before cooking, place dried beans in a bowl and add enough water to cover by 2-3 inches. Soak beans for 8-10 hours.
• When ready to prepare burgers, drain and rinse beans.

• Place mixture in a bowl, and add egg, onions, and spices. Mash with a fork (or process in a food processor) until it forms a chunky paste. Then add bread crumbs, and mix thoroughly.

• Boil lentils in a pot for about 30 minutes until tender.

• Add all chopped veggies and spices.
• Cook about 15 minutes, until all veggies are soft.
• Put all ingredients to a big mixing bowl.
• Add enough bread crumbs to be able to form patties. (You can put veggies into a fine-mesh strainer to get out excess liquid first if you want to use less bread crumbs.).
• To cook, pre-heat pan on stove to medium and spray with non-stick spray. Cover with a lid. Brown each side (about 3-4min per side).
• I cut wax paper to fit into a tupperware container to separate the patties.
• If freezing, I wrap individually with plastic wrap, cool in refrigerator then transfer to the freezer.
