A Bean Burger Burnt Until It's Black, Oh Boy!
In less cynical news, we've been rocking out the best vegan bean burger recipe ever (to date) all winter-spring long, so I thought I would share it, since maybe I won't be able to cook it for you myself as soon as I'd like to. Try them! Eat them all summer long!
Bean
Burgers
3
cups cooked kidney beans
1
1/2 cups real bread crumbs (that is, crumbled up pieces of bread)
2
teaspoons olive oil
1/2
cup grated carrots
1/2
large yellow onion, diced
3
large cloves of garlic, minced
2
tablespoons of each:
spicy
mustard
tomato
paste
soy
sauce
1
1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1
teaspoon ground cumin
Heat
the oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the
onions and garlic and sauté until tender. Add the carrots, chili and
cumin and continue to cook for another 5 minutes. Set aside.
Using
a potato masher or the back of a fork, mash the beans in a large
bowl. Add the sauces and cooked vegetables. Stir well to
incorporate. Add the bread crumbs and salt/pepper to taste.
Form
this mixture into patties-- try to keep the thickness around an inch
or so and pat the edges to keep compact. Oil your skillet and cook
the burgers over medium heat for around 5 minutes on each side. Cook
longer if you would like the outsides of the burger to be crispier.
