Arabic-style vegetarian burgers topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 4 frozen vegetarian soy patties
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
- 1 small clove of garlic, finely grated
- 1/4 teaspoon hot paprika
- Salt
- 4 cups young arugula
- 1/2 cup canned roasted red bell peppers, sliced
- 1 small cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp. l. olive oil
- 1 tsp crumbled dried mint
- 1/4 cup crumbled cheese feta
- 4 pitas with bran, fry
- Pickles, for serving (optional)
Preparation:
- Place the eggs in a small saucepan, cover with water to a depth of about 2.5 cm. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Cover, remove from the heat, and let stand for 12 minutes. Cool the eggs under cold water, then peel and slice.
- Prepare the veggie patties according to package directions. In a small bowl, combine the yogurt, garlic, paprika, 2 tablespoons of water, and salt to taste. In a large bowl, combine the arugula, roasted red pepper, cucumbers, olive oil, mint, and feta cheese, and season with salt to taste.
- Cut 2.5 cm off the top of each pita, open the resulting pocket, and tuck the cut-off top halves inside to reinforce the bottom. Fill each pita with veggie patties, some arugula salad, and a few egg slices. Drizzle with yogurt sauce. Serve the Arabic veggie burgers with pickles.
