Preparation:
Preparation time: 25 mins
Cooking time: 10 mins
Serving: 2
Ingredients:
- 2 large portobello mushrooms
- 1 Tablespoon Miso ( any color)
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- pinch of salt and pepper
Cucumber Ribbon Salad
- 2 turkish cucumbers, cut length-wise into ribbons ( use a mandolin– see notes)
- 1 scallion, sliced at diagonal
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
- ½ teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
Carrot Slaw
- 1 1/2 cups matchstick carrots ( or grated)
- 1 scallion
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
- ½ teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
Asian Guacamole
- 1 extra large avocado, cubed
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped ginger ( or use ginger paste)
- 1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- ¼ teaspoon salt and pepper
- pinch chili flakes and sesame seeds
- 2 whole wheat buns, grilled
Instructions:
- Preheat the grill. Using a fork or mini whisk, mix the miso, siracha and sesame oil and pinch salat and pepper together in a small bowl to make a paste. Brush liberally onto both sides of the Portobello mushrooms.
- Using a mandolin or veggie peeler, cut the cucumber into long thin ribbons. (You can always just slice them into very thin disks) Place them in a medium bowl along with scallions and add the dressing ingredients and gently toss.
- Make the carrot slaw the same way. Place in a small bowl, toss with dressing ingredients. To save time you can combine the both the carrots and cucumber (and double the dressing) and serve them together in one bowl – but I prefer them separate, just for “prettiness”, but it’s not essential.
- Make the Asian Guacamole, by placing everything in a small bowl, mashing and stirring a bit until creamy and combined. It doesn’t have to be smooth. Sprinkle with sesame and chili flakes.
- Grill the Portobello, top sides down first, for 4-5 minutes over medium heat, until juicy and tender. Flip, grill a few more minutes. Grill the Buns.
- Assemble the burgers….spread buns with generous amount of Asian Guac, place the Portobello- gills side up ( to catch all the flavorful juices) then mound with cucumber ribbon and carrot salad, a little squeeze of sriacha, optional pickled ginger. Use the remaining Asian Guac on the bun tops, and top the burgers.
- Eat immediately.
