Burger Patties

Buns and Toppings

Method

Preparing the Burger Patties

  1. 1

    Mash the Beans

    In a large mixing bowl, mash the cooked black beans with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth, leaving some chunks for texture.

  2. 2

    Add Ingredients

    Add the breadcrumbs, chopped onion, minced garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and beaten egg to the mashed beans. Mix well until fully combined.

  3. 3

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty.

  4. 4

    Cook Patties

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook each patty for about 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and heated through.

Assembling the Burgers

  1. 5

    Prepare the Buns

    While the patties are cooking, slice the brioche buns in half and toast them lightly on a separate skillet or grill.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a hot black bean patty, a slice of cheese, and your choice of toppings like tomato slices, avocado, ketchup, and mustard.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Top each burger with the other half of the bun and serve immediately with extra toppings on the side.
