Method

1. Pulse chopped mushrooms briefly in a food processor (or chop very fine by hand) to a coarse, holdable texture.
2. Sauté onion and garlic until soft, then add mushrooms and cook until all moisture evaporates, about 6–7 minutes. Cool completely.
3. Mix cooled mushroom mixture with egg, breadcrumbs, soy sauce, paprika, salt and pepper. Chill 20 minutes to firm up.
4. Shape into 4 patties. Coat each in extra breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
5. Heat oil to 175°C in a deep pan. Fry patties 3–4 minutes per side until deep golden and crisp.
6. Drain on paper towel briefly, then build your burger with your favorite toppings and serve hot.
