Step 1

Put the tofu on to press for 20 minutes. Either use a tofu press or place the tofu on a plate with another plate on top of it and then place something heavy on top like a heavy pot.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).

Step 3

When pressed, cut the tofu into four square burgers.

Step 4

Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Place the tofu burgers evenly on the parchment paper and bake in the oven for 30 minutes, turning the tofu over after 15 minutes.

Step 5

Mix up the marinade sauce by adding soy sauce, maple syrup, peanut butter and garlic powder to a bowl and whisking together.

Step 6

When the burgers have finished baking, brush marinade sauce generously onto both sides of the burgers and leave them to marinate for 5 minutes.

Step 7

Heat up a pan with a little oil and when hot, add the tofu burgers to the pan and fry on each side until golden.

Step 8

Brush on more marinade sauce while the tofu is frying. The tofu burgers are ready to serve.

Step 9

Mushroom sauce: Add sliced mushrooms and soy sauce to a skillet, cover with a lid and turn the heat to medium high.

Step 10

When the mushrooms have released their water and are bubbling away remove the lid and let the excess water cook off.

Step 11

When the water is mostly evaporated, pour in the coconut cream and bring to a simmer.

Step 12

Make a cornstarch slurry by mixing the cornstarch with a little coconut cream or water until smooth.

Step 13

Pour it into the sauce and mix it in. Keep stirring until the sauce thickens.

Step 14

Prepare your hamburger buns, adding lettuce, sliced tomato and pickles.

Step 15

Add the tofu burger, top it with mushroom sauce and serve.
