Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

4 ounces sour cream
1 teaspoon adobo
Squeeze lime juice
2 cups dried black beans
1 onion, chopped
5 garlic cloves
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 red onion, diced
6 to 8 garlic cloves, chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup flour
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon adobo
Olive oil
1/4 cup julienned red onion
1/4 cup diced tomatoes
Squeeze lime juice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • For the sour cream: Mix all the ingredients together and set aside.
  • For the black beans: Combine the black beans with the onion and garlic cloves. Cover with water and bring to a boil, and then simmer, covered. The beans are ready when they are tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Drain and set aside to cool down. Drain.
  • For the vegetables: Saute all ingredients in a medium saute pan in the oil over medium-high and set aside to cool down.
  • For the patties: Take about 3/4 cup black beans after they have cooled and put into food processor and pulse until the beans break apart but don't form a big ball of mush.
  • Add the beans to the sauteed vegetables and mix in the flour, cumin, salt and pepper, and adobo and form into 6 to 8 patties.
  • Add enough oil to coat a medium saute pan and place over medium-high heat. Add 2 to 3 patties and cook for about 1 minute, and then turn and sear the other sides for 1 more minute. The patties should have a golden brown crust. Place into the oven for about 4 minutes.
  • While the patties are in the oven, add enough oil to coat a medium saute pan and place over medium-high heat. Add the red onion and cook for 1 minute. Add the spinach, season with salt and pepper, and wilt. Add the diced tomatoes and toss to warm through.
  • Set the spinach in the center of a plate and place 2 to 3 bean cakes on top. Squeeze a little lime juice on top and top off with chipotle sour cream.
