Best Black Bean Veggie Burgers With Greek Mayo Recipes

THE BEST BLACK BEAN BURGER

Steps:

• Mash black beans: Place rinsed and drained black beans in a bowl. If needed, blot them with a paper towel to remove extra moisture. Place in a large bowl and mash well with a fork.
• Puree Veggies: Place bell pepper, onion and garlic in a food processor and process until finely minced.
• Strain: Transfer pureed veggie mixture to a fine mesh strainer and use the back of a spoon to press out excess moisture. (If it's too wet, the burger wont hold together as well.)
• Combine: Add the strained vegetable mixture to the bowl with the black beans. Add the chili powder, cumin and salt and pepper and stir to combine. Add beaten egg and mix. Stir in bread crumbs.
• Form Patties: scoop mixture into 4 even sized patties, forming them and pressing flat with your hands.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan and fry the leek, mushrooms, thyme, tofu and kale for about 5 mins. Add the mustard, tamari and half of the black beans and give it a good stir. Transfer the mixture to a blender and pulse a few times - don't over-blend, it needs to be quite chunky in texture. Scoop into a bowl and add the rest of the black beans, the oat bran, rice and chopped nuts, then mix well.
• Divide the mixture into 4-6 evenly sized portions and shape into patties using your hands. Tip the gram flour onto a plate, if using, then roll the patties in the flour to coat.
• To make the burger dressing, mix all ingredients together in a bowl and set aside. Fry the patties for 4-5 mins on each side until crisp on the outside.
• Slide the patties into the buns with the tomato, onion, lettuce and a dollop of burger dressing.

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.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Peel and roughly chop 1 onion, then place it in a food processor. Add the mushrooms and pulse until just finely chopped. (Be careful not to overprocess into a paste.) Transfer mixture to a large bowl and wipe out the bowl of the food processor. Add torn bread to the processor, pulse until it forms fine crumbs, then transfer crumbs to the mushroom mixture.
• Add black beans and coriander, season well with salt and pepper, then mix together until thoroughly combined. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape into 1-inch-thick patties. Rub all over with oil and dust with ground coriander, then place on an oiled baking sheet.
• Roast patties until dark and crisp, 35 to 45 minutes. Sprinkle the burgers with the Cheddar. Let burgers cool slightly to firm up. While the burgers cool, transfer the buns to the hot oven and heat for a few minutes until toasted.
• Meanwhile, peel and very finely chop the remaining 1/2 onion. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add the tomatoes. Zest the lime on top, then halve the lime and squeeze lime juice on top, to taste. Add a few shakes of hot sauce and season with salt and pepper to taste. Pit, peel and finely slice the mango and avocado.
• Spread the yogurt on the bases of the rolls or buns, then top with half the salsa, the mango and the avocado. Add the burgers, the remaining salsa, extra Tabasco and cilantro leaves, then pop the lids on, press down lightly and serve immediately.
