INGREDIENT NOTES:

Cooked Lentils:

• Brown or green lentils are used. Empty them thoroughly before use. Lentils provide a meat-like consistency. They contain fiber & protein.

Rolled Oats:

• Oats are meant to hold the patty. They additionally take up moisture. Use quick oats when you have nothing better. Avoid packets of instant oatmeal.

Tomato Paste:

• Gives depth in flavor and color. It makes the patty moist. Take unsweetened tomato paste. Don’t use ketchup in the mix of the patty.

Soy Sauce:

• Adds safety, salty taste. It substitutes for the use of additional salt. Put some low-sodium in its place, in case you like. Tamari is employed by gluten-free.

Vegan Mayo:

• Egg-free and creamy. Take any store-bought brand. There are also homemade ones. Makes the sauce thick & creamy.

Pickle Relish:

• Brings sweetness & crunch. Use finely chopped pickles when you have no relish. It plays a vital role in the taste of the Big Mac.

Vegan Cheese:

• Select a slice that can melt. Cheddar-style is the best. Soy or cashew-based cheese can be sought. Add in the last minute of the cooking.

TIPS:

• To make their texture firm, I chill and cook the patties.
• Make twice the quantity of sauce and put it in the refrigerator.
• Get buns made of whole-grain to add fiber.
• Use tomato slices/jalapeños as a variation.
• Smaller miniatures of party sliders.

STORAGE INFORMATION:
