Beans are one of the main nutritional sources of protein for vegetarians. The world of vegan and vegetarian diets offers a delightful variety of patties and burgers. However, this recipe is totally different — a fully innovative double bean mixture that creates a vegan, gluten-free super bean burger.

The blend of two kinds of beans with vegetables and a mix of seeds and spices gives this burger its unique flavor. Arthur, a 15-year-old preparing to be a dentist and a talented squash player with several championships under his belt, loves good food. Convincing him to embrace vegetarian dishes was easy once his parents converted to a vegetarian diet. This recipe was originally devised to satisfy his voracious appetite before and after training sessions.

Now, his mother prepares them in large batches and freezes dozens at a time, ensuring a ready-to-eat meal when hungry Arthur returns from squash practice. Enjoy this king-sized vegan super burger — perfect for a day trip or a quick meal on a busy day.

Ingredients

Soybean Mixture

Vegetable Mix

Sautéed Crushed Tofu

Instructions

Prepare the Soybean Mixture

Soak the 160g soybeans for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight. Drain and discard the soaking water, then transfer the beans to a pot or pressure cooker with fresh water using a 1:3 ratio of beans to water. Cook over medium heat until the beans are tender—approximately 3 hours on the stovetop or 30 minutes in a pressure cooker.

Process the Beans into a Coarse Paste

Drain the cooked beans and pulse them in a food processor or blender until you achieve a very coarse texture, scraping down the sides as needed. Transfer the coarse paste to a bowl, add all the prepared Soybean Mixture ingredients, and mix thoroughly.

Prepare the Vegetable Mix

Heat a skillet over medium heat with 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil. Sauté the minced 1/2 medium carrot, 1/2 medium zucchini, and 2 leaves of kale for at least 3 minutes. Season lightly with salt and transfer to a separate bowl.

Sauté the Crushed Tofu

In the same skillet, heat 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil with 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds. Add 120g crushed organic tofu and sauté until lightly golden. Grate a pinch of nutmeg over the tofu, add 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and continue sautéing briefly until the tofu develops a slightly crunchy texture.
