  • Gochujang Yogurt Spread:
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 TBSP gochujang hot sauce * See notes gradually add more if you want more heat
  • 2 tsp Kikkoman soy sauce

Instructions

  • Burger Patties:
  • In a blender or food processor, add the cannellini beans, 1/4 of the panko bread crumbs, scallions, peanuts, garlic, ginger, hoisin sauce, and soy sauce. Pulse until everything is broken down and will hold together. (It's okay if a few scallions and peanuts are still in full form).
  • Shape the bean mixture into four 1/2-inch-thick patties.
  • Put the remaining 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs in a shallow dish.
  • Lightly brush both sides of each patty with oil, and dip the patties into the bread crumbs, turning to coat.
  • Preheat a large skillet over moderate heat.
  • Carefully add the patties to skillet and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, or until heated through, flipping the patties once halfway through. (If the patties brown too quickly, reduce heat to medium-low.)
  • Sesame Ginger Slaw:
  • Place all of the ingredients in a large bowl and toss until everything is evenly coated. Set aside.
  • Gochujang Yogurt Spread:
  • In a small bowl, mix together the yogurt, hot sauce and soy sauce. Mix well, and taste. Add more hot sauce to meet your preference.
  • Assembly:
  • Place the burgers onto their buns and top with slaw and sprouts.
  • Take the top half of the bun and slather on the yogurt sauce.
  • Close your burger and enjoy.

Notes

For the Gochujang Yogurt Spread, you could replace the gochujang hot sauce with wasabi (start with 1 tsp if so), Sriracha, sambal oelek or soy sauce. Always start with less than you think you need and gradually add more to taste.
