Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 425 grams Canned black beans, rinsed and drained
- 60 grams Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 medium Red onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 pieces Bread rolls or burger buns
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 large Tomato, sliced
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, mash the black beans with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth with some texture remaining.
Add the panko breadcrumbs, finely chopped red onion, minced garlic, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the mashed beans. Mix well.
Lightly beat the egg, then add it to the bean mixture. Stir until the ingredients are fully combined and the mixture holds together.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a round patty about 1-inch thick.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and heated through.
While the patties are cooking, prepare the Sriracha sauce by combining the mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce in a small bowl. Adjust the spiciness to your taste by adding more or less Sriracha.
Toast the burger buns lightly in a toaster or on a skillet, if desired.
Assemble the burgers: Spread a layer of Sriracha sauce on the bottom half of each bun. Place a lettuce leaf on top, followed by a black bean patty, a slice of tomato, and more Sriracha sauce if desired. Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade black bean burgers with Sriracha sauce!
