Drain and rinse the canned kidney beans thoroughly, then pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the kidney beans with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth with a few chunks for texture.
Grate the carrot and finely chop the red onion, garlic, and parsley. Add them to the mashed kidney beans.
Stir in the breadcrumbs, ground cumin, paprika, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly combined and the mixture holds its shape when pressed together.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and heated through.
Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the kidney bean burgers on buns with your favorite toppings such as lettuce, tomato, avocado, or vegan mayo.
