This burger uses cooked mung beans. What I do to simplify meals is to boil a bunch of different legumes during the weekend, that way I can just grab them throughout the week for different meals. I soak my mung beans overnight, and then cook for 25 minutes (or until soft).
Sesame paste: it has toasted sesame seeds, versus tahini that has raw sesame seeds. I love the nutty flavor of sesame paste. I make it myself, just email me if you need the instructions for that. Otherwise is easy to find it in Chinese grocery stores or online.
How to Make Mung Bean Burgers?
