Ingredients:

1/2 tbsp olive oil
7g
1 mushroom
80g
1 roll hamburger bun
44g
1 onion
330g
1 tbsp vinegar
16g
1 cup spinach
30g
1 garlic clove
3g
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes
27g

Instructions:

1. Caramelize the Onions:
- Heat 1/2 tbsp olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat.
- Add the thinly sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they become soft and golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.
- Add 1 tbsp vinegar to the onions and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the vinegar evaporates.
- Transfer the caramelized onions to a plate and set aside.
2. Cook the Mushroom:
- In the same skillet, add a little bit more oil if needed. Place the cleaned mushroom cap in the skillet.
- Cook the mushroom for about 4-5 minutes on each side until it becomes tender and a little golden brown.
3. Prepare the Spinach:
- In another pan, add a small amount of oil and heat over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the spinach to the pan and cook until it wilts, about 2-3 minutes.
- Season the spinach lightly with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Toast the Bun:
- While the mushroom and spinach are cooking, toast the hamburger bun until golden brown. You can use a toaster, a grill, or a skillet to do this.
5. Assemble the Burger:
- Place the bottom half of the toasted hamburger bun on a plate.
- Add the cooked mushroom cap on top of the bun.
- Top the mushroom with the caramelized onions, followed by the wilted spinach.
- Sprinkle the chopped sun-dried tomatoes over the spinach.
- Close the burger with the top half of the hamburger bun.
6. Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious mushroom burger with wilted spinach and sun-dried tomatoes!

Tips:

- Choose a large, firm mushroom such as a Portobello for the best texture and flavor.

- Marinate the mushroom in a bit of olive oil and vinegar before cooking to enhance its taste.

- Use freshly chopped garlic for a more robust flavor.

- For a crispy bun, lightly toast it before assembling the burger.

- Pat the sun-dried tomatoes dry with a paper towel if they are very oily to avoid sogging up the burger.

- Toss the spinach in a hot pan just long enough to wilt it but keep its vibrant color.

With these simple steps, you can create a delicious Mushroom Burger with Wilted Spinach and Sun-Dried Tomatoes that stands out from the typical veggie burger. It's an ideal choice for a health-conscious meal that doesn't compromise on flavor. Enjoy your creation with a side of your favorite salad or fries!
