House Black Bean Burger Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Black Bean Patty

   In a large bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth, leaving some chunks for texture. Add the bread crumbs, chopped parsley, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.

2. 2

   Form the Patties

   Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty. Place the patties on a plate and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up.

3. 3

   Cook the Patties

   Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Remove from heat.

4. 4

   Assemble the Burger

   On a serving plate, place a black bean patty, top with sliced avocado, a handful of mixed greens, slices of tomato, red onion, and a generous serving of house pickles. Drizzle with chipotle lime aioli if desired.
