Number Of Ingredients 22

1 (14-ounce) can black beans, drained
1 clove garlic
1/2 cup red onion
1/2 cup red pepper
1/2 cup corn kernel
1 egg
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon cumin
salt and pepper
1 cup bread crumbs
1 cup corn kernels
1/4 cup red pepper
2 green onions
10 teardrop tomatoes
juice of 2 limes
salt and pepper
1 avocado
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon cumin
1 Tablespoon lime juice

Steps:

  • Mix together garlic, onion, red pepper, corn, egg, chili powders, oregano, and cumin. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Mash the black beans a bit and add to the bowl.
  • Stir in the bread crumbs.
  • Form into patties, and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes or so. It helps keep the patties together.
  • Mix together all of the ingredients for the salsa while the black bean patties are chilling.
  • To make the avocado sauce, put the avocado, sour cream, lime, and cumin, in the blender. Blend until smooth. It is a very thick sauce, you can thin it with more lime juice or some water.
  • Heat a pan over medium heat. Pour in a few Tablespoons of olive oil and put the patties in the pan. Resist the urge to flip the cakes to soon. They will fall apart. Cook until they brown and then flip. Cook the other side.
  • I put mine on a bed of spinach leaves. Top with corn salsa and avocado sauce. Serve with lime wedges.

BLACK BOTTOM BEAN CAKES WITH PAPAYA SALSA



Black Bottom Bean Cakes with Papaya Salsa image

At the turn of the century, the black bottom was a dance done by African Americans in the rural South. By the 1920s and the Jazz Age, it was so popular that it was featured in the Ziegfeld Follies. This dish, like that dance, has a similarly universal appeal. When I go out with a bunch of friends, we like to share dishes, and you don't want just a bunch of meat on the table. But at home, it can be hard to break the habit of one big protein dish and a bunch of classic veggie sides. This one is simple: black beans made into cakes with cumin and cilantro, onions, and our mirepoix. The papaya salsa is the highlight, and again I can't stay away from the bird's-eye chile. It reminds me of the homemade hot sauce that sat on every table of my parents' extended community of Caribbean family and friends.

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

1 tablespoon plus 1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup diced onion
Kosher salt
1/2 cup diced poblano pepper
1/4 cup diced scallions
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne
Pinch of smoked paprika
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
3 cups canned black beans (rinsed and drained), pulsed in a food processor until chunky
1 1/2 cups panko
Freshly ground black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1 cup Papaya Salsa (recipe follows)
One 10-ounce package plantain chips
1 small ripe papaya, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 red bell peppers, finely diced
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1 red onion, finely diced
1 bird's-eye chile, minced
5 scallions, grilled until tender and slightly charred, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons chopped basil
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In a large sauté pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion, sprinkle with salt, and cook, stirring, until translucent around the edges, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the poblano pepper and scallions and sauté for 2 minutes. Stir in the cumin, cayenne, and paprika and let the spices toast for 2 additional minutes, then stir in the cilantro. Remove from the heat and place vegetables in a bowl.
  • Add the black beans and 1/2 cup of the panko to the sautéed vegetables. Fold to combine, taste, and season with salt and pepper.
  • Form six 3-inch patties and follow the steps for preparing the patties for frying:
  • Flour: Put the flour in a flat dish (like a shallow bowl or pie plate) and dredge the patties until evenly coated, then shake off the excess flour.
  • Egg wash: Crack the eggs into a medium flat dish and whisk. Dip the flour-coated patties into the egg wash and cover on all sides.
  • Breading: Press the flour and egg-coated patties into a third tray of the remaining panko. Shake off the excess and place on a baking sheet while prepping the rest of the patties.
  • Heat the remaining 1/2 cup oil in a large cast-iron pan over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes.
  • Place patties in the pan without overcrowding and fry until golden, 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
  • Serve with the salsa and plantain chips.
  • Gently mix together all of the ingredients in a medium bowl. Store in a covered nonreactive container. Makes 4 cups.
