Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the grill. Using a fork or mini whisk, mix the miso, siracha and sesame oil ….& pinch salat and pepper together in a small bowl to make a paste. Brush liberally onto both sides of the portobello mushrooms.

Step 2

Using a mandolin or veggie peeler, cut the cucumber into long thin ribbons. (You can always just slice them into very thin disks) Place them in a medium bowl along with scallions and add the dressing ingredients and gently toss.

Step 3

Make the carrot slaw the same way. Place in a small bowl, toss with dressing ingredients. To save time you can combine the both the carrots and cucumber (and double the dressing) and serve them together in one bowl – but I prefer them separate, just for “prettiness”, but it’s not essential. 🙂

Step 4

Make the Asian Guacamole, by placing everything in a small bowl, mashing and stirring a bit until creamy and combined. It doesn’t have to be smooth. Sprinkle with sesame and chili flakes.

Step 5

Grill the portobellos, top sides down first, for 4-5 minutes over medium heat, until juicy and tender. Flip, grill a few more minutes. Grill the Buns.

Step 6

Assemble the burgers….spread buns with generous amount of Asian Guac, place the portobello- gills side up ( to catch all the flavorful juices) then mound with cucumber ribbon and carrot salad, a little squeeze of sriacha, optional pickled ginger. Use the remaining Asian Guac on the bun tops, and top the burgers.

Step 7

Eat immediately.
