Method

1. Preheat the oil in a frying pan over a medium high heat.
2. Bring the broth to a boil, pour over the TVP, cover and let it sit for 10 minutes.
3. While the TVP is reconstituting, add the mushrooms, onions and garlic to the pan. Saute for 5-6 minutes or until fragrant and beginning to brown.
4. In a food processor, combine the sauteed mushroom mixture, TVP, gluten flour, nutritional yeast, soya sauce and tomato paste. Process well until its combined and meaty looking.
5. Transfer to a large bowl and mix in the scallions/spring onion. Form into 6-8 patties. You can also use a burger maker which i do.
6. You can bake or fry these, I fried mine in a large non stick frying pan ina little oil. Cook until well done on both sides.
