Sushi Style Vegan Rice Burgers
Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked sushi rice
- 1 package Field Roast FieldBurger, thawed to room temperature
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon mirin
- a pinch of salt (optional)
- Furikake seasoning or cut nori sheets (optional)
Fillings
- kale leaves
- avocado slices
- julienned purple cabbage
Condiment
- yellow mustard
- maple syrup
Preparation
Season the cooked rice with mirin and rice vinegar, then let it cool.
Shape the rice into buns by placing about 1/3 cup of rice into a wrapped 2-inch diameter round bowl with a flat bottom and pressing tightly with a spoon or spatula; alternatively, use a glass bowl or sushi presser.
Heat a non-stick pan with a drizzle of oil over medium heat.
Sear the rice buns until golden brown on both sides.
Set the rice buns aside until ready to use.
Add a little more oil to the same pan, then sear the thawed Field Roast FieldBurger for 2-3 minutes per side until slightly crispy.
Place one rice bun on a plate.
Layer with a kale leaf, a handful of julienned purple cabbage, the seared FieldBurger, and avocado slices.
Add a tiny spoonful of maple mustard.
Top with another rice bun.
Sprinkle with Furikake seasoning.
Serve immediately.
