Instructions
Prep Crispy Onions:
- To a frying pan over medium-high heat add vegetable oil about 1/2" deep.
- Combine all-purpose flour with salt and pepper. Toss thinly sliced onions in the flour until lightly coated.
- Once the oil is warm add onions to the oil in a single layer and fry until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oil and place on a wire rack or a plate lined with paper towel to absorb the extra oil. Repeat until all the onions are fried and set aside while you prep the rest of the toppings.
Prep Mushrooms:
- Heat vegetable oil in small frying pan over medium heat. Once warm, add sliced mushrooms and season with soy sauce, vegan oyster sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown – about 7 minutes. Set aside.
Prep Burger Sauce:
- To a bowl combine all the burger sauce ingredients and mix until combined. Set aside.
Make Burgers:
- Form the vegan ground beef into four even sized patties. You want them just a tad wider than the buns you're using. Season with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat a cast iron or non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Once warm, cook the burgers until golden on the first side, then flip. Top with cheese and cover the pan with a lid to let the steam melt the cheese.
- Once the cheese is melted and the burger patty is cooked, remove from the pan and place on a baking sheet in the oven to keep warm while you prepare the buns.
- To the same pan, add a knob of vegan butter. Once melted toast the buns until golden brown.
Construct Burgers:
- Top the bottom bun with burger sauce, lettuce, first patty, sauteed mushrooms, pickles, second patty, tomato, crispy onions, more burger sauce, and the top bun.
