Burger Tempe

Today I have some friends coming over for light lunch, some of them are vegetarian. Since ( I think ) I get better making the buns and tempe (fermented soybean cake) is widely available as well as very nutritious. I decided to make mini tempe burger as vegetarian form of beef burger. 

The burgers do taste good and they really enjoy them.

This recipe will make about 20 mini burgers 6 cm wide and 1 cm thick, do half the recipe if you wish to make small amount.

Here is the ingredients / bahan yang di butuhkan

700 gr tempe, pounded
           tempe, tumbuk

1 large onion
     bawang bombay besar, cincang

5 cloves garlic
     siung bawang putih, cincang

1 tsp ground white pepper
     sdt merica bubuk putih

salt to taste
     garam secukupnya

oil enough for sautéing and pan fry 
     minyak secukupnya untuk menumis dan menggoreng

Method / cara membuat

Saute the onion and garlic until fragrant and translucent. Set aside
Tumis bawang bombay dan bawang putih sampai harum dan masak. Sisihkan

Mix well the tempe and sautéed onion and garlic, add  salt and pepper to taste.
Campur rata tempe tumbuk dan bumbu tumis, tambah garam dan merica secukupnya.

Shape the mixture in to a patty, and pan fried until golden and ready.
Bentuk campurang tempe berbentuk bulat pipih, goreng dengan sedikit minyak sampai kekuningan dan masak.

Arrange the tempe burger with sliced tomato and lettuce, or you can add any thing you fancy. Chili sauce? maybe....
Susun burger tempe dengan tomat dan daun salad, atau tambah apa saja, sesuai dengan keinginan anda. Saus cabe?
