Awesome Veggie Sliders
Jump To Recipe
These are truly yummy veggie burgers…you might even get the kids to enjoy them with you! I used regular cheese, however you can easily use your favorite vegan cheese and they will surely taste just as good.
I used short-grain brown rice in this recipe. I have a feeling basmati might not here, bot mushy enough. If you have your rice and lentils cooked and cooled in advance, these burgers can be ready in 30 minutes.

Makes about 8 sliders
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 200g sliced mushrooms
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup cooked brown rice, cooled
- 1/2 cup cooked lentils, cooled
- 1/4 cup kale, finely chopped (optional)
- 1/2 cup bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup spelt flour
- 1/2 tsp Sriracha
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 1/4 tsp celery seed powder (optional)
- 1 1/4 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Oil for frying
- Mini burger buns
- Your choice of toppings – cheese, tomato sauce, pickles, sriracha, mayo
Instructions:
- Before you start, make sure you have all your ingredients ready to go. That means your brown rice and lentils are cooked and cooled.
- Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat and cook the onion and mushrooms until soft and lightly browned. Add the garlic and cook for a few more minutes.
- Transfer the mushroom mixture to a food processor. Add the rice, lentils, kale, bread crumbs, flour, sriarcha, and the remaining seasons. Pulse until the mixture just comes together.
- Transfer to a bowl and if needed mixed s few times with your hand to make everything comes together. Taste to check if the mixture needs more seasons. It should taste a little on the salty side – as once combined with the burger buns it would be perfect.
- Form the mixture into patties about 4cm larger than your burger buns – about 8-10. If not cooking straight away, store in the fridge in an air-tight container for 2 days.
- Heat some oil in your frying pan over medium heat (just enough to have a thin layer in your frying pan), and pan-fry the sliders for about 3 minutes on each side, and about 3 to 4 at a time depending on the size of your pan.
- Slice burger buns in half, and toast slightly next to the burgers so they can soak up a little oil.
- Assemble your sliders as you like – I added some cheese, and mayo mixed with sriracha. YUM!
