Ingredients

4

4 servings

  • 2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1.5 teaspoons grapeseed oil, or as needed
  • 1 medium shallot, chopped
  • 0.5 medium green pepper, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 sprigs fresh basil, chopped
  • 1.5 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1.5 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 1.5 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup bread crumbs

Instructions

  • Mash black beans in a bowl with a potato masher, leaving a few beans whole for texture; set aside.
  • Heat oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add shallot, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook and stir until vegetables have softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add to black beans and season with basil, cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  • Fold beaten eggs into the bean mixture. Sprinkle in bread crumbs, adding a little at a time and fold in. Be careful not to overmix the bean mixture.
  • Reheat the skillet that you cooked the onion mixture in. Scoop out 1 cup bean mixture and shape into a ball. Set the ball into the hot skillet and gently flatten to form a burger.
  • Cook until firm and lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining bean mixture. You might need to add more oil.
