I share the step by step.
Vegan burger, with beet bread and lentil croquettes.
Ingredients for the bread:
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour.
- 3 small beets.
- 1 Tablespoon of instant yeast.
- 1/2 cup of warm water.
- A teaspoon of sugar.
- A teaspoon of salt.
- 1 Tablespoon of oil.
Ingredients for the croquettes:
1 cup of lentils, soak them the day before.
Half an onion, half a red pepper, two sweet chili peppers, a stalk of celery.
Salt, and to taste, I used cumin, 7 spices, and paprika powder, all to taste.
Preparation of the bread:
1- Add the sugar and yeast to the warm water, and mix well, let it sit for 15 minutes.
2- Cut the beet into pieces and make a puree.
3- Once the 15 minutes have passed, in a bowl, add the flour, salt, beetroot, oil, and activated yeast, mix everything, until all the ingredients are well integrated and a dough is formed. If you see that the dough is very soft, add a little more flour.
4- We add the dough to a counter and knead, form a ball and let it rise for approximately 25 minutes.
5- After the time has passed, we cut the dough into 4 parts, and we form our loaves, we make buns and flatten them, then we put them in the oven for approximately 25 minutes.
)6- While the bread is cooking, we make the lentil croquettes. After soaking for 24 hours, we take them to a food processor, grind them, and set them aside.
7- We cut the vegetables into small squares, and fry them for a few minutes, then add them to the lentil mass, along with the spices, and mix well.
8- We form the croquettes and cook them in a frying pan with a little preheated oil.
9- Once the cooking time of the buns has passed, we remove them from the oven, let them cool a little and assemble our Burgers.
10- To make these delicious Burgers, add lettuce, tomatoes and lentil croquettes, but you can add all the vegetables you want. And that's it, let's enjoy this delight.
I say goodbye my friends, I hope you liked this recipe, a different dinner, a hamburger full of flavor made with ingredients that provide many positive things to our body, beets give us energy, and they have many benefits, and Lentils are rich in protein, what more could we ask for? Just enjoy this delight, see you next time.
