Ingredients:
- 1 C canned black beans (roughly drained but not washed)
- 1 carrot, grated
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 3 potatoes, grated
- 4 spring onions, chopped
- 1 C corn
- 1 tsp veggie stock of your choice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oil for frying
- Burger buns of your choice (Check the ingredients list to ensure these don’t contain milk or egg)
- Fillings of your choice, e.g. vegan cheese slices, mayo, tomato, lettuce, etc. My favourite filling I’ve discovered with these patties is sauerkraut and pickles with mayo or aioli 🙂
Method:
- The beans act as your binding agent (egg-replacer), so don’t wash the beans, just drain the clear liquid off the top of the can and leave the ‘thicker’ liquid at the bottom.
- In a large mixing bowl, mash the beans with a fork or a potato masher.
- Add the remaining ingredients, except the oil and mix until well combined.
- Shape the mixture into patties roughly the diameter of your burger buns
- Heat about two tablespoons of oil and cook each patty until done, about 3 minutes on each side. You could also bake or air fry these, but this does not give them the crispy outside like pan-frying.
- Serve on buns with your favourite fillings.
