Pan Fried Solar Simmered Bean Patties Recipes

Steps:

• 1. In large bowl combine all ingredients except canola oil and mix well. If the mixture seems a little loose, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 10 minutes.
• 2. Separate bean mixture into 4 portions and shape each portion into a 3/4 inch patty (it is a rather loose mixture, not like sturdy burgers). Dredge each patty in remaining panko and get ready for a quick saute.
• 3. In large non stick skillet add 1-2 T canola oil and heat on medium. Add patties and cook 3 minutes on each side. Remove from skillet and serve with fried eggs and a salad, or salsa, sour cream and some spicy sriracha sauce.
• 4. If you have any cooked cakes leftover, make a spicy corn tortilla melt the next day. It's quick and delish. For each melt, take 2 corn tortillas (I use the 6 inch) and spread equal amounts of low fat mayo and srirscha sauce on inner side of each tortilla.
• 5. Sprinkle a T or 2 of low fat cheese over the mayo mixture.
• 6. Cover the cheese with a bean cake topped with pico de gallo. Top the patty with a little more cheese. Cover with second tortilla (mayo/sricha side down) and press down lightly so the bean patty will spread to almost the size of your tortilla.
• 7. Spray cooking pan with PAM or similar product, heat burner to medium and add tortilla sandwich to the heated pan. Cook about 3 minutes on one side, and right before you're ready to flip the tortilla, spray top with a little more PAM. Flip and cook another 2 or 3 minutes. Let cool a bit and serve with anything your little heart desires.

Steps:

• Soak beans in a large bowl overnight. Set Global Sun Oven out to preheat. Combine beans, onion, celery, and clove in a large pot. Add enough water to cover by two inches. Cover the pot and place it in the GSO. Cook until beans are tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Drain beans, remove and discard clove. Mash bean and vegetable mixture, add salt to taste. When mixture is cool and you're ready to fry the patties, mix in the egg yolks, bread crumbs, and parmesan cheese. Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Shape bean mixture into small patties. Dip each patty in the egg whites, coat with bread crumbs and fry in batches. Drain patties on paper towels and keep warm as you continue frying. Just before serving squeeze lemon onto the warm patties. Serve with lemon wedges.
