Ingredients

- Put into a large bowl and add the eggs, bread crumbs, garlic, tamari sauce and the seasonings. Mix well.
- Grind the hazelnuts in a coffee grinder. Reserve.
- Make six patties or croquettes with the mixture and flatten with your hands or a fork. Dip them into the hazelnut mixture until fully covered.
- Heat the oil in a fry pan and cook the patties or croquettes until golden brown on each side.
- Serve on a hamburger bun with your favourite toppings, lettuce, tomato, etc. or serve topped with your favourite tomato sauce as a side dish.

Mitch, this tofu recipe is exactly the type of meal I look for when experimenting with more tofu dishes. I continually strive to add to add this unique protein to my menu ;o)
Btw...Did you have a chance to take a look at the chocolate PB dulce de leche pie I posted lately? It's a real crowd pleaser. I get the feeling it might please you too ;o)
I'll be making these burgers this week for sure...thanks for sharing this tasty recipe.
Flavourful wishes,
Claudia
