Ingredients
1 pound / 16 oz / 450 g extra-firm tofu, drained and patted dry, then sliced2 large eggs1/2 cup / 2 oz / 55 g fine dried bread crumbs1/2 cup / 2 oz / 55 g cashew nuts1/2 cup / 2 oz /55g sunflower seeds1/2 cup / 2 oz / 55g sliced mushrooms1 tablespoon Dijon mustard1 tablespoon shoyu or soy sauce1 teaspoon ground cumin1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne1/4 teaspoon fine grain sea salt1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Directions
Place all the ingredients except the olive oil in a food processor. Pulse until the mixture comes together and is free of most chunks, stopping to scrape down the sides of the food processor once or twice if needed.
Divide the mixture into eight equal portions (3.6 oz) and use your hands to press and form into round but flat-ish patties.
Pour the olive oil into your largest skillet over medium-high heat, and arrange as many patties as you can without crowding. Cover, and cook turning once, until deeply browned on both sides. Roughly ten minutes. You want to make sure the middle of the patties cook through. If the pan is too hot you'll burn the outsides before the middle cooks up, so be mindful of that.
