Vegetarian burger with Portobello mushrooms.


This recipe was created in an inspirational day. I love fresh mushrooms and everything that involves vegetables. I always eat in a healthy and balanced way and nowadays even more, because I feel very good with this type of food. Healthy eating does not have to be a sacrifice nor a synonym of food “without soul”.  Quite the opposite. Spices make the difference in your plate, turning everything delicious. Take a chance in the kitchen. It was what I did with this dish and it came out wonderful: healthy, super easy, without consuming much time and delicious. Keep the recipe.

  • 4 Portobello mushrooms (2 large for the base and another 2 smaller to cover).

  • 1 large carrot

  • 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter
  • 1 coffee spoon of ginger
  • 2 drops of piri-piri sauce (or 1 small piri-piri)

  1. Preheat the oven to 250º.
  2. Wash, peel and slice the courgette and the carrot.
