How To Make thai veggie sliders
-
Step 1Prepare Teff according to package directions. This will turn out to be consistency of porridge. I boiled 1/4 cup teff in 2 cups water, adding a little olive oil. Then I let this sit, covered, for a good 20 minutes so it would thicken up.
-
Step 2This is my done teff, after sitting to thicken.
-
Step 3Boil broccoli and carrots until semi-tender. Drain and chop them up into bite-sized pieces, after they have cooled.
-
Step 4Chop vidalia onion and saute until tender. Boil corn until tender. Drain and set aside.
-
Step 5Drain black beans. Pour them into a bowl and mash them up.
-
Step 6Add the broccoli, carrots, onion, teff and spices, mashing it all up as you go. Stir in the corn. Let this sit uncovered, for about 15 minutes, for it to thicken up.
-
Step 7In the meantime, make the sauce. Heat the peanut butter, coconut milk and soy sauce on the stovetop, stirring frequently, until everything is melted together. Turn off heat, cover and let it sit.
-
Step 8Heat saute pan with about 2 tablespoons olive oil. Drop in tablespoon of mixture. Use spatula to shape into a patty. Turn over after about 5 minutes on each side, or as patty becomes crusty on the outside.
-
Step 9Place patties on Hawaiian buns. Top with the sauce and topping ingredients. Enjoy!
