Wrap tofu in a kitchen towel or several layers of paper towels. Place on a
cutting board, and weight with an iron skillet or wooden cutting board for
to 45 minutes. Meanwhile, saute onion and garlic in oil until onion is limp
and slightly brown on the edges. Remove towels and place tofu in a large
bowl. Mash with a fork and add onion-garlic mixture. Add chili sauce,
worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, cumin, bread crumbs and hazelnuts if
desired; mix well. Place in a food processor and pulse to form a uniform
texture. Add salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. With wet
hands, shape tofu mixture into 8 to 10 patties and place on a well oiled
vegetable grill. Handle patties gently; they're delicate. Grill for 3 to 4
minutes on each side, until browned. Variation: Instead of grilling, saute
burgers in olive oil until lightly browned on bo sides. Note: This burger
is especially tasty when served with a spicy sauce made low-sodium soy
sauce mixed with chili sauce or barbecue sauce and topped wi sauteed
mushrooms. Per patty: 158 ca;; 9 g prot; 6 g fat; 16 g carb; 0 chol 1 g
