WHITE BEAN BURGERS

These have a delicate texture and a wonderful savory taste. They're a little tricky to turn, as they can fall apart. Don't make them too thick and use an offset spatula, and it will be easier for you. They should be cooked on a flat griddle or pan; don't try to grill them on a barbecue.

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 patties

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cans white beans, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
Salt to taste
2 to 3 large garlic cloves (to taste), green shoots removed, minced
2/3 cup finely grated carrot
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
2 teaspoons minced fresh sage or thyme
1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs
1 egg, beaten
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Whole grain hamburger buns and the condiments of your choice

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a medium-size skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add a pinch of salt, the garlic and the grated carrot, and continue to cook for another minute or two, until fragrant and the carrot has softened slightly. Remove from the heat.
  • In a food processor fitted with the steel blade, puree the beans with the lemon juice. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the onion mixture, the parsley, sage or thyme, the bread crumbs and the egg. Season to taste. Shape into patties, ½- to ¾-inch thick. Set on a parchment-covered baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
  • Heat the remaining oil in a large, heavy skillet or on a griddle over medium heat and brown the patties for 4 minutes on each side, being very careful when you turn them over. An offset spatula works well for this. Serve on whole grain buns, with the condiments of your choice.

WHITE BEAN BURGERS WITH SPINACH



White Bean Burgers With Spinach image

This recipe came from Better Homes and Gardens and DH and I liked it very much. The burgers had great flavor and consistency. DH said so far, this has been the best meatless burger recipe we have made to date. Instead of using the country Italian bread, we just used hamburger buns. We chopped the parsley. We did not top with the Easy Tomato Sauce.

Turkey & White Bean Burgers Recipe image

Provided by Margannl

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup canned small white beans, rinsed and drained
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons finely diced red bell pepper
3 tablespoons plain dried breadcrumbs
1 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 large egg
1 tablespoon thinly sliced chives
1/2 pound ground turkey
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
8 slices (1/2 inch thick) good country bread (like ciabatta), toasted

Steps:

  • Combine the white beans, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, and the garlic in a large bowl. Using a fork, lightly smash the beans and mix with the oil and garlic until blended. Add the red pepper, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, egg, and chives. Mix until blended. Crumble the ground turkey and add it to the bowl, along with 1/2 tsp. salt and a generous sprinkling of pepper. Gently mix with a fork or your hands until just blended; don't overmix or the burgers will be tough. Fill a medium bowl with water, moisten your hands, and shape the meat into four patties about 3 inches in diameter and 3/4 inch thick. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook the burgers until the bottoms are browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the burgers and continue cooking until they're firm to the touch and register 165°F on an instant-read thermometer, another 5 to 8 minutes. Serve immediately on the toasted bread.

White Bean Burgers - An Economical and Nutritiously Balanced Veggie Recipe

White Bean Burgers offer a cost-saving, delightful taste experience while delivering essential nutrients. The combination of pantry staples and fresh ingredients makes them a great go-to meal. Here's a summary of essential tips and a thoughtful conclusion based on the provided article:

Essential tips for culinary success

  • Properly prepare your white cannellini. If using canned, rinse and soak them for at least an hour (preferably 3-4 hours) in a covered bowl or container.
  • Savor the aroma of sautéed veggies. Enhance the flavors of your dish by slowly frying celery, carrots, and onions in a large skillet with a touch of oil.
  • Embrace the mash and mix technique. Use a garlicky mash of white cannellini and panko breadcrumbs to create a cohesive mixture. Add sautéed veggies and seasonings for a harmonious mix.
  • Achieve perfect patty formation. With slightly wet hands, shape the mixture into six equal-size patties. Don't worry about achieving a perfect form; they'll hold together during cooking.
  • Golden brown mastery: Pan-fry the patties in a hot skillet with oil, cooking them in batches until they attain a beautiful golden brown crust. Please make sure the temperature is hot enough to form a crust, but not so hot that the patties burn.
  • Captivating flavors from the heart. Unleash the aromatic power of thyme and the zestiness of paprika and cumin, along with the warmth of chili powder. These aromatic spices, combined with sautéed veggies, create a delightful symphony of flavors.

A Nutritiously Balanced and Economical Delight

White Bean Burgers stand as a nourishing and budget-savvy creation, seamlessly merging pantry staples with fresh ingredients. Their plant-based composition offers a guilt-free indulgence, while the careful selection of spices and veggies ensures a rich taste experience. Not only are they a joy to make, they're a joy to eat, too! The result is a Nutritiously Balanced and Economical Delight.
