To prepare, remove the patties from their packaging. They can be cooked directly from frozen. Pan-frying in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes per side until heated through and lightly browned is a common method. Baking in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, is another option. Grilling is also possible, though care should be taken as they can be more delicate than meat burgers. Ensure the patties are thoroughly heated before serving.
How it differs from similar foods
Their texture is typically softer, and the flavor profile is derived from vegetables and spices rather than meat. They do not contain animal products, making them suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets.
Who it is for

How to keep the rest
Keep these patties frozen until ready to use. Once thawed, they should not be refrozen. Store any unused portion in the original packaging or an airtight container in the freezer. Proper storage ensures the quality and safety of the product.
