Lentil & Black Bean Burger Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Patty Mixture

   In a large bowl, combine the cooked lentils, black beans, bread crumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped spinach, beaten egg, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

2. 2

   Shape the Patties

   Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties. If the mixture is too wet, add more bread crumbs as needed.

3. 3

   Cook the Patties

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the patties and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and heated through.

4. 4

   Sauté Onions and Spinach

   In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil if needed and sauté the remaining chopped onion until translucent. Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted.

5. 5

   Assemble the Burger

   Place each patty on an onion roll, top with sautéed onions and spinach, and add Dijon mustard to taste.
