Black Bean Burgers image

Make semi-veganism work for you. Once a week, let bean burgers stand in for hamburgers, leave the meat out of your pasta sauce, make a risotto the likes of which you've probably never had - and you may just find yourself eating "better."

Time 45m

Yield 8 small burgers, 4 supersize

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup dried, stemless porcini mushrooms
2 cups cooked or drained canned black beans
1 teaspoon roughly chopped garlic
3/4 cup rolled oats, or more if needed
2 teaspoons smoked paprika or chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 tablespoon soy sauce
Salt and black pepper
Bean-cooking liquid, porcini soaking liquid or water
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Soak the mushrooms in hot water for 5 to 10 minutes; roughly chop.
  • Put the mushrooms, beans, garlic, oats, spices and soy sauce in a food processor with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Let the machine run until the mixture is combined, not puréed, about 30 seconds. (Or use a potato masher.) Add oats to thicken, or liquid to thin, as needed.
  • Stir in the cilantro, and let sit for 5 minutes.
  • Shape into 4 large or 8 small patties; let them sit for 5 minutes.
  • Put the oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook until crisp on one side, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until the burgers are crisp on the other side, another 5 minutes or so. Serve with the usual fixings.

These burgers were a great way to use up some leftover black beans. They were also a healthier alternative to traditional beef burgers.

I found these burgers to be a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some more moisture next time, maybe by adding some grated zucchini or sweet potato.

These burgers were a bit too spicy for my taste, but they were still very good. I think I'll try making them again with less chili powder.
