Spicy Tofu Burgers Step 2

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Fry the burgers in a skillet with a little bit of olive oil first to get the outsides nice and browned. Then transfer to the oven and bake for 20-or-so minutes, until the burgers are firm to the touch on the outside. (You can throw some peppers or onions in the pan with the burgers if you want to cook them up at the same time.)

Serve on toasted buns with sriracha, mayo, and fresh veggies and herbs (bonus points if you make quick pickled veggies because YUMMM).

Spicy Tofu Burgers Step 4

Hey Lindsay,
               One of the equipments you have mentioned is the tofu press which I unfortunately don't have. I was thinking along the lines of crumbling th tofu and then adding salt to it to remove the excess of water. Would it work?

Am a big fan of burgers and this tofu burgers looks soo good &amp; more easy to make  with full of flavor....i can't wait to taste is...Thanks for sharing Lindsay...!

These were soooooo good. I didn’t have lemongrass paste so I tried some lemon zest and it was great. All the fresh herbs + sriracha (I added 3 tbsp because yes please) made them so flavorful that even my carnivore husband was in love. Thank you!

These were amazing!  My new go- to veggie burger.   Thank you for this gem!

Easy, delicious, great texture. I just wish I added the full 2 tbsp of mint.  I was worried it would be to over powering, but the spice and the cool mint is amazing together!   highly recommend trying this out

My family loved these spicy tofu burgers, even the little one! I will definitely be making them again, and I wouldn't change a thing. Perfect! Thank you.

For all the people who don’t have lemongrass paste: just toss a stalk of lemongrass (you can find lemongrass at any Asian grocery store and even some regular ones), 1 shallot, 2 tsp olive oil, 5 garlic cloves, and 2in piece of ginger into a food processor! You can also add a pinch of tumeric or some chilis in to add a bit more flavor. That’ll make a nice lemongrass paste that can flavor these burgers, soups, stews, etc. Enjoy!

I 'v been searching for a good recipe to make burger, at last I landed up in a interesting article. Thanks for sharing LINDSAY!

Super flavorful tofu burgers! Couldn't find lemongrass paste but still turned out delicious. I added a bit of paprika, garlic powder, and fish sauce for extra umami. Love how colorful all the toppings are too!
