Black Bean Croquettes With Fresh Salsa image

These are so tasty and have a great texture. The salsa makes them taste really fresh and I love that they're baked instead of fried.

Time 40m

Yield 8 croquettes, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (15 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed
1/4 cup plain breadcrumbs, plus
1/3 cup plain breadcrumbs, divided
2 cups finely chopped tomatoes
2 scallions, sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon chili powder, hot if desired, divided
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 avocado, diced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Mash black beans and cumin with a fork in a large bowl until no whole beans remain. Stir in corn and 1/4 cup breadcrumbs. Combine tomatoes, scallions, cilantro, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder and salt in a medium bowl. Stir 1 cup of the tomato mixture into the black bean mixture.
  • Mix the remaining 1/3 cup breadcrumbs, oil and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon chili powder in a small bowl until the breadcrumbs are coated with oil. Divide the bean mixture into 8 scant 1/2-cup balls. Lightly press each bean ball into the breadcrumb mixture, turning to coat. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake the croquettes until heated through and the breadcrumbs are golden brown, about 20 minutes. Stir avocado into the remaining tomato mixture. Serve the salsa with the croquettes.

These croquettes were a little too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed them. The salsa was also very good.

I'm not a big fan of black beans, but I actually really liked these croquettes. They were crispy on the outside and soft and flavorful on the inside.

The croquettes were a bit dry, but the salsa helped to add some moisture. Overall, they were a good appetizer, but I wouldn't make them again.

These croquettes were a little too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had added some more spices to the batter.
