BLACK BEAN BURGERS

"Before I met my husband, I was a vegetarian. I don't make many meatless dishes on our cattle ranch, but I still love this one."

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups canned seasoned black beans, drained
1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
1/4 cup grated onion
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1 large egg
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Canola oil, for the pan
4 slices Swiss cheese
1/2 cup mayonnaise
Hot sauce
4 burger buns, toasted
Lettuce and sliced tomatoes, for topping

Steps:

  • Mash the beans.
  • Using a fork, mash the beans in a medium bowl until they are mushy but still have some whole bean pieces throughout.
  • Make the burger mixture.
  • Mix the breadcrumbs, grated onion, chili powder, egg and some salt and pepper into the beans. Add a splash of water if the mixture looks dry. Set aside for 5 minutes. Preheat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add a few tablespoons of canola oil.
  • Form the patties.
  • Divide the bean mixture into 4 equal balls and form into 4 nice, neat patties. Black bean burgers don't shrink when they cook, so whatever size you make them when they go into the skillet will be the size they are when they come out.
  • Cook the burgers.
  • Cook the burgers until browned, 4 to 5 minutes on each side. Add a slice of Swiss cheese to the top of each burger. Invert a second skillet on top of the first skillet and continue cooking, 2 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
  • Top the burgers.
  • Combine the mayonnaise and some hot sauce in a small bowl. Serve the burgers on toasted buns with the spicy mayonnaise, lettuce and sliced tomatoes.

SUNNY'S BLACK BEAN AND HAM EGGS BENEDICT



Sunny's Black Bean and Ham Eggs Benedict image

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

One 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup frozen corn (do not thaw)
1/4 cup instant oatmeal
One 1.25-ounce packet taco seasoning mix
1 clove garlic, grated on a rasp
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 egg, beaten
4 to 6 tablespoons olive oil
1 stick butter, at room temperature, cut into 4 pieces
3 egg yolks, beaten until they lighten in color
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Kosher salt
6 ounces deli ham, sliced paper thin (if you go to the counter)
4 poached or sunny-side up eggs
1/4 cup chopped dill pickles
1/4 cup lightly chopped fresh cilantro
2 Roma or plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped

Steps:

  • For the black bean patties: Mash the beans in a large bowl, leaving some of the bean texture. Stir in the corn, oatmeal, taco seasoning and garlic. Stir to combine, taste and then season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Fold in the egg. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 15 minutes to hydrate the oats.
  • In a large nonstick pan, heat the oil on medium heat. When the oil begins to swirl a bit, use an ice cream scoop to portion the black bean mixture equally into 4 balls. Drop them into the pan, then press each into a patty shape with a spatula. Cook on one side until golden and a bit crisp, about 8 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until slightly crisped, 5 to 8 minutes more. Remove to individual serving plates.
  • For the cream sauce: In a double boiler with the water boiling but not touching the pot above, add a piece of the butter, the yolks, lime juice, a splash of water and a pinch of salt. Whisk continuously while the butter melts, then add another piece of butter, working it in until it melts. Continue adding the butter pieces one at a time, whisking and melting between additions, until all the pieces are whisked in. Taste and adjust with salt if needed. Keep warm on the double boiler.
  • Divide the ham into 4 servings and place a portion on top of each black bean patty. Top each with an egg, drizzle over the sauce and sprinkle with pickles. Sprinkle the plate with cilantro and tomatoes. Serve warm.

BLACK BEAN BURGERS

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large red onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
3 cups mushrooms, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, chopped
One 14-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 cup whole-wheat flour
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast flakes (optional)
1000 Island Dressing, recipe follows
4 burger buns
4 butter lettuce leaves
4 teaspoons yellow mustard
4 large tomato slices or 8 medium slices
12 slices dill pickles
Handful of arugula
Salted potato chips, for serving (optional)
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 1/2 teaspoons tomato ketchup
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1 1/2 teaspoons capers, finely chopped
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
Small pinch sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat, then saute the onions for 4 minutes, until they start to soften. Add the garlic, mushrooms and thyme and cook for a further 3 minutes or until most of the mushroom juice has evaporated. Stir in the drained beans and soy sauce and cook through for around 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat.
  • Roughly mash the mixture with a potato masher, whilst keeping some texture; be careful not to over mash. Stir in the flour and nutritional yeast flakes, if using. Divide the mixture into 4 portions. Then, using your hands, mold each portion into a burger shape about 1/2 inch thick and 3 inches wide or wide enough to fit your bun.
  • Put the burgers on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Allow to chill in the fridge for 1/2 hour, to firm up before cooking.
  • To fry the burgers: Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a medium-large frying pan over a medium heat (you want to hear a nice sizzle) and cook the burgers for about 2 minutes on each side or until cooked through and crisp brown on both sides.
  • To assemble the burgers: Spread 1 teaspoon of 1000 Island Dressing on the base of each bun, then lay a lettuce leaf on top. Add a burger, spread a thin layer of mustard onto each burger, add a slice or 2 of tomato, and then 3 thin slices of pickle. Add a few arugula leaves, then spread a little mustard on the underside of each burger top to complete. Serve with potato chips, if using.
  • Mix all the ingredients together in a small serving bowl, whisking with a fork.
  • This dressing is delicious spooned over veggie burgers or served as a dip with crudites. I also love it drizzled over a festive vegetarian nut roast the next day in a sandwich. Any unused dressing can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.

BLACK BEAN BURGER WITH AN EGG ON TOP



Black Bean Burger With an Egg on Top image

This is a vegetarian burger that does not mimic the texture or look of ground meat, but it isn't meant to. It's more like the most excellent refried beans. Though you can serve this well-seasoned patty like a traditional burger, on a bun with the usual condiments, it is at its best topped with a fried egg. Dusted with fine cornmeal, the burgers are pan-fried as the mixture is too soft to grill. After frying, they are baked until crisp. For convenience, they may be fried in advance and reheated.

Categories     burgers, grains and rice, vegetables, main course

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 (15-ounce) cans black beans, or 4 cups cooked black beans, on the firm side
1 cup cooked brown rice, cooled
1 cup chopped cilantro, leaves and tender stems, plus sprigs for garnish
1 serrano chile, finely chopped
1 cup chopped scallions, both white and green parts
1/2 teaspoon chipotle chile powder or pimentón picante
2 teaspoons cumin seeds, toasted and ground, or 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
Pinch of ground cayenne
Salt
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons cornstarch dissolved in 1 tablespoon cold water
Neutral oil, such as grapeseed or safflower, for frying
Fine cornmeal, for coating patties
1 sunny-side up egg per person (optional, but recommended)
Toasted buns, lettuce leaves and condiments (optional)

Steps:

  • Put beans in a colander set over a bowl and drain well. (Reserve juices for another purpose or discard.) Pat the beans dry with paper towels, then mash them a bit with a wooden spoon or potato masher, but leave them chunky.
  • Transfer beans to a large bowl with the rice and toss together. Add chopped cilantro, serrano chile, scallions, chipotle powder, cumin and pinch of cayenne, to taste. Season generously with salt and mix well to incorporate.
  • Add the egg to the cornstarch solution and beat together, then drizzle it all over the bean mixture and mix well to distribute.
  • Form mixture into six thick patties of equal size. Each patty should weigh about 4 1/2 ounces. Place patties on a baking sheet and place in freezer for 10 minutes to firm. (For a firmer mixture, prepare a day in advance of cooking and refrigerate.)
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Add 1/2-inch oil to a heavy skillet over medium heat. Dust patties lightly on both sides with fine cornmeal. (It's OK if they are slightly frozen.) When oil is shimmering, slip the patties into the pan; work in batches to avoid crowding, or use two pans. Fry the burgers gently, about 3 minutes per side until nicely browned, adjusting heat as necessary. Transfer burgers to a baking sheet and let them crisp further for about 20 minutes in the oven (or let them cool and reheat later).
  • Meanwhile, fry the eggs, if using. Put a sunny-side-up egg on top of each warm burger, and serve on buns or warm plates with lettuce and condiments, if using. Garnish with cilantro sprigs.
