"These patties grill perfectly and will impress your friends.
I made my bun, but you can obviously buy them or even use a roll from the bakery. Fill with your favourites, I also added some vegan cheese."

A Note from Feedfeed
Everyone needs a go-to veggie burger recipe. Prepare these on the stovetop or outdoor grill. We recommend grilling these burgers directly on a piece of aluminum foil placed on the grill grates. This extra insurance is helpful for more delicate burgers.

Sauté onions over medium heat until translucent, about 5 minutes. When starting to brown, add red and green peppers. Sauté until peppers are cooked through, about 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat.

Crush the beans with a wooden spoon. Add flax meal and agar agar (if using) until mixture is dough-like. Add pepper mixture and cilantro. Form patties with your hands. Leave in fridge for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
Step 3
In a large saucepan over high heat, add oil. Sear patties until golden brown on outside and warm all the way through, about 5 minutes per side.
