As I’m currently living in a small town where vegan options are still catching up, the burger experience remains quite underwhelming. While some places do offer veggie patties, they’re often topped with just a slice of tomato, cucumber, and… ketchup.
Since I’ve been craving a burger lately, I decided to make my own burger sauce—which is incredibly simple and uses ingredients you might already have at home.
📝 Ingredients
Here are the ingredients you’ll need for the sauce:
- Sunflower Oil: 75 milliliters.
- Soy Drink: 50 milliliters, unsweetened.
- Garlic: just 1/2 clove, minced.
- Dijon Mustard: 1 teaspoon.
- Lemon Juice: 1 teaspoon.
- Ketchup: 4 tablespoons.
- Paprika, Black Pepper, and Salt: a pinch of each will suffice.
👨🏻🍳 Here’s how simple it is to make it
In a tall cup, I combined 75ml of sunflower oil, 50ml of soy drink, half a clove of garlic, 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon of lemon juice.
Using a hand blender, I whipped everything into a smooth, mayo-like consistency—this is actually how we make our vegan mayo.
Then, I added 4 tablespoons of ketchup, along with a pinch of paprika, black pepper, and salt, and stirred everything extremely well with a spoon. This resulted in a vibrant pink sauce that can elevate your veggie burger or your side of fries. 🙂
