Vegetarian Tofu and Burdock Root Burgers
Since my husband was putting on weight, I created this dish to serve him a healthy and tasty dish.
The key is to slowly cook the burgers through on low heat. That will make them firm and less likely to break apart.
Mayonnaise is optional, but I recommend a small amount for taste. Don't add too much or they will become greasy tasting. Recipe by Maa

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Drain the tofu. I wrap the tofu in a paper towel, microwave it for 3-4 minutes, or else put a weight on top of it and let it sit in the refrigerator for 3 hours.
- 2
Finely shave the burdock root or thinly slice with a slicer, soak in water, then drain.
- 3
Lightly sauté the burdock root from Step 2 in soy sauce and mirin.
- 4
Place the tofu in a bowl, and mix in the burdock root from Step 3 and the ☆ ingredients until evenly incorporated.
- 5
No need to use your hands; use a wooden spatula. It should look like this.
- 6
Heat oil in a frying pan, then scoop out the batter with a spoon, and drop it into the pan. The smaller the paddies, the easier they are to eat.
- 7
Brown both sides over medium heat, then reduce to low heat until the paddies are cooked through. Once they are firm, they are done.
- 8
Serve with grated onion and ponzu dipping sauce, and bon appetit!
- 9
[Option] When preparing these for obento, I recommend teriyaki style: After pan frying, pour in a mixture of soy sauce, mirin, and sugar.

Low Calorie and Inexpensive Tofu Burgers Low Calorie and Inexpensive Tofu Burgers
The benefits of adding tofu are: ① it's low in calories; ② it's cheap to make and ③ kids who don't like tofu eat this burger without noticing (my little one hates tofu so much that when he sees any visible tofu he almost throws up.)The key is to drain the excess water from the tofu very well. If you skip this step the burger mixture will be hard to form, and will fall apart during cooking. You can use any kind of ground meat you like but I prefer pork. Please add nutmeg to taste.

Melty Cheesy Tofu Burgers Melty Cheesy Tofu Burgers
It's been 6 years since I stopped eating meat. Most of my protein intake comes from tofu. Tofu can be eaten in many different ways, and you can even make pseudo-hamburgers with tofu.At Step 6, when you are forming the patties try to cover the cheese completely so that it's not poking out to the surface; that way the burgers will fry up easily.You can use a cheese other than mozzarella. Any cheese is ok as long as it's the melting kind. Recipe by enzo_lorenzo -

Salmon and Tofu Burgers With Cheese Salmon and Tofu Burgers With Cheese
I tried putting cheese into light tofu burgers and it was delicious, so I tried cheese in this too.If the patties don't hold together, add some more breadcrumbs.They are very soft and tend to fall apart, so please be careful when turning them over.The salmon is salty to begin with, so the patties don't need any additional seasoning.
