Plant-based burgers

Haha, no.

Despite sounding like an appalling idea, these are great.

You don’t get blood oozing from the real thing

It’s water and myoglobin

Wouldn’t want to ruin it!

Fuck that, fucking pseudo-burgers, nasty, overspiced, oversalted, over MSG’d, chemically-crapola for virtue signallers.

I love me a nice bleeding hunk of bambi flesh, but if - as I increasingly do - I’m eating mostly non-animal, I’m going to garlic-butter-up some big fat portobellos, grill 'em, and whop 'em in a bun, ideally with some grilled halloumi.

Waitrose carry some properly nice prawnburgers too -

bit of coriander, tomato, sweet chilli sauce, dash of lime, fish sauce - killer good.

I enjoy the Thug Kitchen Spinach and Bean recipe. It’s not really a pretend meat thing but it’s very appealing in its own right.

Surely you must have the copyright on that phrase by now?

There I was, signalling my virtue in the semi-deserted Gretna Green Welcome Break services.

Where you would indulge in a vegan sausage roll.

We have a winner.

I shouldn’t post this really, as I’m not wanting it to become over-subscribed in advance of Christmas :grimacing: But, as a largely ex-cheese-eater, I am totally fulfilled by this place. I actually prefer the vegan alternatives, now the whole field of cuisine has come of age.

Tonight’s beetroot, chilli and black rice burger.

Working my way through my beetroot stash, but also threw in sweet potato, mushroom, aubergine, roast garlic and onions, and a bit of miso paste.

Regret using my baking rings on the pan as they held their shape much better than expected.
