Yield
Serves: 4
Preparation

Warm 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook the onion, mushrooms, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste until the mushrooms are soft, stirring.

In a large bowl, combine the egg, mushroom mixture, walnuts, parsley and breadcrumbs. Form 4 patties, using about 1/2 cup per patty.


Warm the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 5 minutes on each side, or until browned. Lay a slice of cheese on top of each burger and continue to cook until melted.

Serve the burgers with the buns.
