Blackbeanbrownriceburgers Recipes

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, cook onions in 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat until translucent but not browned, 2-4 minutes; remove from heat and set aside. In bowl of a food processor fitted with blade attachment, pulse half the beans and rice until mixture forms a thick paste. In a large bowl, add processed bean mixture, remaining black beans and rice, cooked onion, bread crumbs, egg yolks, 2 tablespoons salsa, salt and pepper; mix well with hands, squeezing until mixture holds together. Form bean mixture into 4 patties. Cook burgers over medium heat in remaining 1 tablespoon oil until firm and browned, 4-5 minutes on each side., In a small bowl, combine sour cream and remaining salsa. Layer a lettuce leaf, burger, cheese and sour cream mixture on each bun bottom, adding tomato and red onion as desired. Replace bun tops.

Steps:

• In a small pot, combine rice and 1 cup water; bring to a boil, and then turn down to medium heat and cook 20 minutes.In a saucepan, heat a little oil over medium heat and saute the onion and garlic about 5 minutes, until the onion is translucent and soft.
• Add the corn and spices and cook until the corn is defrosted, another 5 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, mash the drained beans with a fork or your fingers.
• Add the rice, corn, and onion; combine, mashing it with your fork as you go. Taste and adjust the spices now, because once you put the egg in you could risk salmonella.
• Add the egg and mix in well.
• Add the breadcrumbs.
• Form into patties by patting the desired amount of mixtured into a flat round. (I used a giant cookie scoop to make sure all the patties were the same size, but you can just divide the mixture into six sections).
• Cook about 2 minutes on each side (if you can't flip the patty without breaking it, it's probably not finished cooking).

Steps:

• In a bowl, mash beans with a fork; add the rice, onion, egg, and 2 tablespoons salsa; mix well.
• Season if needed with salt and pepper.
• Drop by 1/2 cupfuls into a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray.
• Flatten to 1/2-inch thickness; cook over medium heat for 4-5 minutes on each side or until firm and browned.
• In a small bowl, combine sour cream and remaining salsa; on bottom bun, place a lettuce leaf, burger, sour cream mixture and slice of cheese; cover with top bun.

Steps:

• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat, then saute the onions for 4 minutes, until they start to soften. Add the garlic, mushrooms and thyme and cook for a further 3 minutes or until most of the mushroom juice has evaporated. Stir in the drained beans and soy sauce and cook through for around 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Turn off the heat.
• Roughly mash the mixture with a potato masher, whilst keeping some texture; be careful not to over mash. Stir in the flour and nutritional yeast flakes, if using. Divide the mixture into 4 portions. Then, using your hands, mold each portion into a burger shape about 1/2 inch thick and 3 inches wide or wide enough to fit your bun.
• Put the burgers on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Allow to chill in the fridge for 1/2 hour, to firm up before cooking.
• To fry the burgers: Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a medium-large frying pan over a medium heat (you want to hear a nice sizzle) and cook the burgers for about 2 minutes on each side or until cooked through and crisp brown on both sides.
• To assemble the burgers: Spread 1 teaspoon of 1000 Island Dressing on the base of each bun, then lay a lettuce leaf on top. Add a burger, spread a thin layer of mustard onto each burger, add a slice or 2 of tomato, and then 3 thin slices of pickle. Add a few arugula leaves, then spread a little mustard on the underside of each burger top to complete. Serve with potato chips, if using.
• Mix all the ingredients together in a small serving bowl, whisking with a fork.
• This dressing is delicious spooned over veggie burgers or served as a dip with crudites. I also love it drizzled over a festive vegetarian nut roast the next day in a sandwich. Any unused dressing can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Steps:

• For the black bean burger: Combine the beans, cilantro, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, cumin, salt, chipotle powder, oregano and black pepper in a bowl and mash with your hands until about 2/3 of the black beans are mashed. The mixture should hold together when you pat it into a burger. Shape 6 burgers from the mixture.
• Heat a griddle over high heat, add the grapeseed oil and then the burgers. Cook until the burgers are seared on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook on the second side until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the griddle and serve immediately following the plating instructions below.
• To plate: Heat a griddle over high heat, add the grapeseed oil and then the pineapple slices. Cook until the pineapple slices are seared on one side, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook on the second side until browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Butter both sides of the burger buns and toast on the griddle until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Set the bottoms of the buns on 6 plates. Top each with a lettuce leaf, tomato slice, red onion slice and burger. Add the bun tops and serve each with a piece of seared pineapple and some vegetable chips on the side.
