Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz lion's mane mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 bunch scallions minced
  • 2 tbsp miso paste
  • 1 tbsp tahini
  • 1/3 cup hot sauce of choice
  • 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce of choice
  • 1 tbsp apple cider or rice vinegar
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro
  • 1 bunch chives
  • 5 cloves garlic peeled
  • 1 3/4 cup cooked white or brown short grain rice
  • 1 cup panko
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • pinch of hot paprika or red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Heat 1 tsp of olive oil in the bottom of a large shallow pan. Add the mushrooms and cook 3 minutes. Flip mushrooms over and cook 2 minutes. Add garlic, scallions and soy sauce and cook 1-2 minutes.
  • Transfer mushroom mixture to a blender.
  • Add all remaining ingredients EXCEPT PANKO and RICE.
  • Pulse mixture until it comes together but do not puree. It should still be chunky.
  • Transfer blended mixture to a large bowl. Stir in panko and rice.
  • Coat a 1/3 cup measuring cup with olive spray. Use the measuring cup to scoop mixture. Place each scoop on a lined baking tray. Flatten each scoop gently with the palm of your hand to form the burgers.
  • Bake 15 minutes at 375 degrees F. Flip burgers over and bake an additional 15 minutes. The outside should be brown and a bit crispy.
  • Servings suggestions: We like to sautee or air fry the burgers for a minute or two before serving. Top with your favorite buffalo sauce or horseradish cashew cream sauce, pickled onion, and spicy arugula.
