Ingredients
For the Shroom Burgers:
- 4 large portobello mushroom caps, stems sliced off
- olive, vegetable, avocado or canola oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 1/2 cups, plus 1 teaspoon all purpose flour, divided
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 1 1/2 cups mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese or gruyere, Monterrey Jack or other good melting cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 hamburger buns
Faux ShackSauce:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise (or vegan mayonnaise)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon ketchup
- 1 teaspoon dill pickle juice (from jar of pickles)
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
Topping Ideas:
- 1 ripe tomato , sliced into 4 - 1/4 inch slices
- 1/2 ripe avocado , peeled and cut into 1/4 inch slices
- 4 pieces romaine or other crisp lettuce
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Place the mushrooms on a parchment lined baking sheet, rub with oil and sprinkle with salt on both sides. Place mushrooms gill side down and roast for 30-35 minutes or until slightly golden. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
- Slice the mushroom caps horizontally being careful to make sure to cut directly through so both sides are even.
- For the cheese filling, place the cheeses, onion and garlic powder and one egg in a medium sized bowl and stir to throughly combine. Form the mixture into 4 even sized disks just smaller than the mushrooms. Place a disk of the cheese in between each mushrooms to create a sandwich and press to secure. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Create a breading station. Place the flour in a deep bowl or pie plate. Whisk 3 of the eggs in a similar sized bowl and the panko in a third bowl.
- Dredge each stuffed mushroom in the flour, then the whisked eggs and finally coating with the panko, pressing to adhere.
- Heat a large sauté or cast-iron pan with 1/2 inch of oil over medium high heat (if using a candy thermometer it should read 350 degrees). Fry the burgers on each side for 3-4 minutes or until golden and crisp. Transfer the burgers to a paper towel lined plate to remove excess oil.
- Make the faux ShackSauce. Place the sauce ingredients in a bowl and stir to combine.
- Place a shroom burger on the bottom of a bun, top with avocado slices, tomato, lettuce and ShackSauce (if desired) then top with second bun.
Notes
- Oil Temperature: Ensure your oil is hot enough before frying to get that perfect crispy coating without soaking up too much oil.
- Refrigerate The Cheese-Stuffed Mushrooms: Once you build the mushroom patties with the cheese filling, pop them in the refrigerator for a bit before breading.
- Tips for Making Ahead of Time:
- Portobellos can be roasted up to 3 days ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator. Slice when ready to fill and cook.
- The breaded burger patties can be and stored in the refrigerator for 24 hours and then cooked as instructed.
