Ingredients
- 200 gr. tofu
- 1 zucchini
- 1 yellow pepper
- 1 onion
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon seasoning "for chicken"
- 50 gr. breadcrumbs
- 50 gr. rice flour
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Grated the onion and garlic and, apart, grate the tofu. We reserve
- We wash the pepper and cut it very often. We also wash the zucchini and grate it. We reserve
- In a large pan, put the oil to heat and, when it is warm, take the onion and garlic. Let it be done for 5 minutes, until they get poached.
- Add the zucchini and pepper, stir and let it cook for 7 minutes, until the pepper is tender.
- Add the grated tofu with the spices and the salt and stir again to mix all the ingredients well. After 5 minutes, we put out the fire and set aside.
- When the mixture is lukewarm, we toss the bread crumbs and the flour and we remove so that all the ingredients are well integrated. Then, we pass the dough to a bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel and put it in the fridge for 1 hour so that the dough is cooled and we can work it better.
- After this time, we take the bowl out of the fridge, we take lots of dough and we give them a hamburger shape.
- In a non-stick pan, put a little oil and, when it is hot, we are doing the burgers in batches, allowing them to be done for about 3 minutes on each side. When we see that they are golden brown on both sides, we extinguish the fire, we emplatamos and we serve.
Notes
- If you do not have yellow pepper, you can make the hamburgers with red pepper.
- In case you do not have rice flour, you can also use whole wheat flour.
- If you want to freeze the burgers, you can do it before cooking, keeping them in the freezer wrapped individually so they do not deform or stick together.
