Really loved this recipe - used 1/2 bread crumbs (whole wheat) and 1/2 oatmeal with Cattle Boys BBQ Sauce instead of oyster sauce and it was to die for! My husband insisted we make these again the very next night.

I recently became a vegetarian and I must say, this is one of my favorite veggie burger recipes. On adding oatmeal the texture did in fact become meat like, very tasty. I used soy instead of oyster sauce. I also baked it for 20 minutes (don't have cooking spray)

These were very good! I took the advice of others and chopped the mushrooms. To the onion-mushroom mixture, I omitted the oyster sauce and added freshly chopped basil, parsley and garlic. I used instant oatmeal instead of bread crumbs. The burgers were moist and held together. I made some burgers in a frying pan and some baked in the oven at 400 for 25 minutes. Both were good!

these were awesome. my boyfriend engulfed 3 in minutes. I suggest using plenty of seasoned bread crumbs to make these form cakes before placing on skillet. make sure to chop the onion and mushrooms very small, this will also help to keep them in burger form. cooking them long enough on each side helps too. i will try making them vegan in the future. also, i used steak sauce...oyster sauce did not seem like it would match this sandwich to me at all. also, i did not use the olive oil method others have used. i just sprayed the pan with canola oil and it worked perfectly!

Even though I love mushrooms, I wasn't completely sold on this dish. I still give it 4-stars though because it wasn't bad. I didn't really care for the taste of the oyster sauce (which I hadn't used in any dishes before), and like others, I did have trouble getting it to stay together. Like another reviewer, I would also recommend trying cutting up the mushrooms in smaller pieces to see if that helps hold together better. And maybe, if I try this again, I'll try a different sauce. I love the idea of steak sauce, but it might not be thick enough. We'll see...

I hate mushrooms. Just straight up portobello mushroom burgers are not edible to me, but this was good. I cant really rate the recipe because I didnt cook it as writen. We didnt have normal mushrooms so I had to use one portobello and hope that it was about a pound (and it was far from it) so I added peas as more veggies and used oatmeal to stick it together because adding more bread didnt work- the members of my household refuse to let me make it the way it was written now.

Pretty darn good. I made a few changes: soy sauce rather than oyster sauce and bread crumbs rather than bread slices. They were very wet, but I found they held together alright if you made them small enough.

So delicious! Definitely chop the mushrooms and use 2 eggs. I used green onions because it's what I had on hand, garlic, and Worcestshire sauce instead of oyster sauce. I also used bread crumbs and wheat germ and eye-balled the amount I needed before and after I added the eggs. Handforming the patties worked really well because if they fell apart I just added more breadcrumbs/wheat germ. Like other reviewers I fried the patties in 2-3 TBS of oil and they kept their form. This is going in my rotation!

I was pleasantly surprised with this! I read other reviews first and IF you do make these changes: -Chop the mushrooms -Use 2 eggs -Fry in 2-3 tbsps of oil They will act (and even look) like hamburger meat. Awesome.

I used oatmeal instead of bread, which gave this meal a more meaty feel. Also, instead of oyster sauce, I substituted with hot sauce, which really gave it a nice flavor! Tasty!

I really enjoyed this recipe. I did chop the mushrooms and it seemed to help keep them in "patties",but I also found that they were a little too wet so I added more bread crumbs than it called for. Also didn't have oyster sauce, so used veggie broth instead which gave it great flavor! They are very tasty when served with lettuce tomato onion and cheese and stuck under the broiler.

Adding one more egg to the mixture and frying in oil rather than cooking spray helps firm it up (much like eggs foo yung). Using toasted whole grain bread crumbs gives it a little more hearty flavor. I added a little garlic and chili powder just because I like the flavor.

Very good! I used steak sauce instead of oyster sauce like someone suggested. It did fall apart so next time I'm going to try chopping up the mushrooms. The larger slices seemed to be what made it fall apart.

These were pretty good - like most reviewers I had trouble keeping them in patties but had some success by letting them fry on each side longer than I normally would have. That seemed to glue them together some. Also, the smaller the 'burger' the better they stayed together. I wasn't a huge fan of the oyster sauce taste (by the way, look in your asian food section or wherever soy sauce is if you're having trouble finding it) but that's a personal preference. Next time I may try some steak sauce instead.

My husband and I both thought that these were horrible. They fell apart and you could not make it stick into a pattie. They were very bland and nothing would help them. I threw it all out and made something else.

Very bland and messy. I added some garlic. The mixture was too loose to form into patties so I wrapped it in the lettuce.

These are really flavorful and delicious. I used olive oil instead of cooking spray and found that, along with hand shaping the burgers, it helped keep them together. A real winner.
