Barley Burgers Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. Generously grease a sheet of aluminum foil with oil.
• Bring barley and water to a boil in a saucepan. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until the barley is tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Mash black beans with a fork in a large bowl until thick and pasty. Stir barley, Cheddar cheese, mushrooms, onion, red bell pepper, parsley, eggs, garlic, salt, and black pepper into mashed black beans. Mix enough bread crumbs into bean mixture to form a sticky batter that holds together.
• Divide batter into 4 to 6 patties; place on prepared aluminum foil.
• Grill patties on the aluminum foil for about 8 minutes on each side.

Steps:

• Pulse half of cooked barley in a food processor until mashed. Transfer to a bowl with beef, carrots, ginger, remaining barley, soy sauce, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; stir to combine (do not overmix). Divide into 4 portions; form into 4 1/2-inch round patties.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. When it shimmers, add patties in a single layer and cook, flipping once, until browned on both sides and just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes total. (If necessary, cook in two batches.)
• Toss arugula and cucumber with remaining 1 teaspoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Spread Dijonnaise onto split sides of rolls. Sandwich patties and arugula mixture with rolls; serve immediately.

Steps:

• Bring the water to a boil in a medium sized pot. Add barley, reduce heat to medium, and cook covered fifty minutes until barley is tender. Drain any excess liquid.
• Mix cooked barley with remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Form seven burgers with your hands and cook in an oiled large frying pan over med-high heat for ten mins on each side. Serve warm with lettuce on a bun.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium heat, cook beef, onion and celery until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the tomato juice, water, barley, chili powder, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 50-60 minutes or until barley is tender.
