CRISPY BEAN CAKES WITH HARISSA, LEMON AND HERBS



Crispy Bean Cakes With Harissa, Lemon and Herbs image

This recipe embraces any beans you've got in your pantry. Canned beans are easiest, but fresh shelled beans can be ready to go with a quick blanching, and dried beans can be used, too, if they've been soaked and cooked in advance. Toss the well-drained beans with harissa (or any red chile paste), scallions, herbs, lemon zest, cornstarch and a lightly whipped egg white. (The egg white and cornstarch give these bean cakes their crispness.) Shape them into patties for frying, and slice some lemon wedges for serving. Eat the patties as a vegetarian main dish, a side to roast chicken or fish, or as a snack with a dash of harissa.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings (10 bean cakes)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 (15-ounce) cans beans, such as black-eyed peas, chickpeas, pinto, kidney or black beans, drained (about 3 cups)
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves and tender stems, chopped, plus more for garnish
1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped, plus more for garnish
1/4 cup sliced scallions
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon harissa, plus more for serving
3/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 lemon, zested and cut into wedges
1 egg white
6 tablespoons olive oil, plus more as needed
Labneh or full-fat Greek yogurt, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Place the drained beans in a large bowl and crush using a fork or your fingers until coarsely mashed. Add the cilantro, dill, scallions, cornstarch, harissa, coriander, cumin, salt and pepper. Add the lemon zest and stir to incorporate. Alternatively, you can incorporate ingredients using a food processor and pulse to combine.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the egg white until foamy and fold it into the bean mixture. Cover the mixture and refrigerate to chill slightly, at least 15 minutes, before shaping and frying.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a medium (10-inch) nonstick skillet or a well-seasoned cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Working in batches, use a 1/4-cup measure to scoop portions of the bean mixture into the oil. Using the flat surface of the cup, press each scooped portion to tightly pack and shape it into a 1/4-inch-thick patty. Cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 3 minutes. Turn using a wide spatula, and brown the other side, about 2 minutes.
  • Remove cooked cakes from oil and drain on a plate lined with paper towels or a cooling rack on a baking sheet. Repeat until all the bean mixture is used, adding the remaining oil and removing any loose bits from the skillet as necessary. Return the bowl to the refrigerator in between batches to keep the mixture chilled.
  • Serve lemon wedges alongside the crispy cakes for squeezing. Garnish with dollops of labneh, if using, additional fresh herbs and harissa for dipping.

Yield Makes about 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups dry Great Northern beans
1 onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 rib of celery, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 carrot, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 cloves of garlic (1 smashed and 1 minced) and 1 bay leaf
2 sprigs fresh thyme plus 1 teaspoon thyme leaves
6 cups chicken broth
Coarse salt and pepper, to taste
1/3 cup heavy cream
Few drops extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • 1. Soak the beans overnight. Or place beans in a pot, cover with cold water and bring to a boil over high heat; remove from heat and set aside, covered, for 1 hour.
  • 2. Drain the beans; transfer to a 2-quart pot with the diced onion, celery, carrot, smashed garlic, bay leaf, thyme sprigs, 5 cups of broth, salt, and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat; simmer until beans are very tender, about 90 minutes. If the mixture becomes dry, add some of the remaining broth.
  • 3. Drain the beans; discard the thyme sprigs and bay leaf. Warm the beans in a pan over medium heat. Add the cream, thyme leaves, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Let simmer. Cook until the cream is reduced and is almost dry on the beans, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  • 4. Puree the beans in a food processor, adding a few drops of oil. Adjust seasonings.

Tips:

  • Soak the beans overnight: This will help to soften them and reduce the cooking time.
  • Use a variety of beans: You can use any type of white beans for this recipe, such as Great Northern beans, navy beans, or cannellini beans.
  • Add aromatics: Aromatics, such as garlic, onion, and celery, will help to add flavor to the beans.
  • Season the beans well: Don't be afraid to add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
  • Let the beans cool slightly before whipping them: This will help to prevent the beans from becoming too mushy.
  • Use a food processor or blender to whip the beans: This will help to create a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Serve the whipped beans immediately: Whipped beans are best served fresh.
