This recipe is also a couple of month old, but simply soooooo good for a veggy burger, that it has not been forgotten. I found it on this crazy blog here thinking it's always a good idea to find some alternative meat-free burgers. The liquid smoke was intriguing and the result was fabulous, even so the paddies were rather thin and therefore a little dry - so there's great potential left....
For 8 paddies put 2 cups of chopped spinache and 1 cup of diced onions in a food processor and pulse until it's a fine mixture. Add
3 cups cooked kidney beans
Half a cup of dinkel (originally it was brown rice, but hey, lets go healthy a little further)
4 gloves of pressed garlic
1Tsp liquid smoke
2tsp soy sauce
1Tsp smoked paprika
2tsp oregano
1.5tsp grounded cumin
black pepper
and mix until it's a proper paste, but not doughy. Place the mix in a bowl and mix in half a cup breadcrumbs. You should have a nice texture of the mix to form balls and then paddies. As said, try to focus on thickness, not diameter, to prevent a dry paddy. Put them on a baking tray covered with baking paper and spray them with oil. Put them for 15min at 190C in the ofen or until golden brown on top - then turn them and bake the other side.
These paddies are great replacements for spicy meat burgers and get a great meat like texture with chunkier beans!
