Asian Style Veggie Burger With Portobello Bacon And Napa Slaw Recipes

TERIYAKI PORTOBELLO "BURGERS" WITH NAPA CABBAGE SLAW

Steps:

• Make teriyaki marinade:
• In a small saucepan simmer marinade ingredients, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Continue simmering marinade until reduced to about 1/2 cup and cool to room temperature.
• Put mushroom caps and marinade in a large sealable plastic bag, arranging caps in one layer, and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Marinate mushrooms at room temperature, turning bag over several times, 1 hour.
• Make slaw:
• In a bowl whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, oil, and honey and add cabbage, carrot, and scallions. Toss vegetables well to coat and season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat broiler.
• Drain mushrooms and arrange, stemmed sides up, on lightly oiled rack of a broiler pan. Broil mushrooms 2 inches from heat and turn over. Brush mushrooms lightly with oil and broil 3 minutes, or until tender. Transfer mushrooms with a slotted spatula to hamburger bun bottoms. Top mushrooms with slaw and bun tops.

ZESTY NAPA SLAW

Steps:

• Whisk the vinegar with the mustard, salt and pepper, to taste, in a large bowl. Gradually whisk in the olive oil, starting with a few drops and then adding the rest in a steady stream to make a smooth, slightly thick dressing. Add the cabbage, scallions, and bell pepper and toss until the vegetables are coated. Serve now or cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
• Before serving, grate the apple (with the skin but not the seeds) directly into the slaw, add the watercress leaves, and toss again. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
