BEYOND BURGER WITH PIRI-PIRI MAYO AND ENOKI MUSHROOMS

© 2024 Wicked Foods Inc. All rights reserved.

We’re combining the smokey meatiness of our favorite Beyond Burgers with the cast-iron pressed perfection of enoki mushrooms.

Enoki mushrooms, or enokitakes, are beautiful little alien-looking shroom clusters made of many long, delicate thin stalks that end in tiny caps. When we press them, the result is a dense, shredded texture that is full of flavor and hearty goodness.

The Piri Piri hot sauce with plant-based mayo makes and excellent flavorful dressing for any burger. If you don’t have Piri Piri, Frank’s Red Hot or sriracha would work just as well. All depends on the favors you’re shooting for and what’s available to you. Play with it and have fun with your food!

  • Cook Time: 12 min

Ingredients

Units
Scale
  • a little oil
  • 1 bunch enoki mushrooms
  • 1/2 t piri-piri powder
  • 2 Beyond Burgers (or your favorite plant-based burger)
  • 2 burger buns
  • a little plant-based butter

for the piri-piri mayo

Instructions

  1. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. When skillet is hot, add oil, and spread oil around pan.
  2. Add mushrooms to the skillet and cook for a few minutes, then add a second cast-iron pan to the top to press. Apply some pressure to the top skillet, and make sure the mushrooms are pressed evenly. The shrooms will start to release their liquid and caramelize. Allow the liquid to evaporate.
  3. Sprinkle piri-piri powder evenly over mushrooms. Cook for a few minutes, then turn the mushroom clusters so the seasoned side is down.
  4. Let simmer for a few minutes then remove from heat. Set mushrooms aside.
  5. Give the skillet a quick wipe, and bring back to the heat. Add a splash of oil.
  6. Place Beyond Burgers in the center of the skillet, and onion slices around the sides.
  7. Let cook for 2 minutes each side, cook the onions on the side in the same pan. After burgers finish cooking remove from skillet.
  8. Toast burger buns in same pan, buttering each slice and placing sliced side down in skillet. Remove when charred, do not burn, eh!
  9. Whisk together the piri piri and mayo for the flavorful dressing.

to assemble

  1. Spread piri-piri mayo on toasted buns.
