These scrummy portobello mushroom burgers, from The Mushroom Bureau, with avocado, goat’s cheese and beetroot are a wonderful vegetarian alternative to enjoy a homemade burger this month…
INGREDIENTS
For the burgers (serves 4)
- 4 portobello mushrooms
- 4 brioche buns
- 2 avocados, peeled, sliced and drizzled with lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper
- 2 beetroots, sliced
- Goat’s cheese, sliced into 4 discs
For the herby red onion

- 2 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp dried oregano
METHOD
- Preheat the grill to high.
- Heat a griddle pan and char the brioche buns.
- Drizzle the mushrooms with olive oil and season well. Chargrill them until soft and cooked. Set aside.
- In the same pan, add the red onion and a little dash of olive oil. Season well and cook until the onion is starting to caramelise. Remove to a bowl and stir in the herbs.
- Top each bun base with a slice of beetroot, avocado, a mushroom and the herby red onion mixture.
- Place a disc of goat’s cheese on the top, place under the grill until the cheese starts to melt and top with the other half of the bun. Serve immediately – and enjoy!
