I finally made the black bean cakes.... YUM. I doubt I will ever buy veggie burgers again. Great change of pace from the usual dinners of beans n rice, beans n quinoa, beans and beans...
3 c cooked black beans
2 T olive oil
2 T creole seasoning
1 T minced garlic
2 T diced onions
1 T dried cilantro
Bake the black beans on a cookie sheet for 20 mins at 350, cool, then toss everything into a food processor and blend. Refrigerate for a few hours and then form into patties. I fried one in canola oil, and I'm going to see if I can form the rest into patties and freeze for future use. I think they might bake pretty well too.
The recipe called for "lime peppered vegan mayo" that I did not make, instead I went with a squeeze of lime juice directly on the patty, a smear of aioli, and some chopped jalapenos. Yum.
Note - they were kinda crumbly, definitely not as sturdy as your usual soyburger. I don't have a food processor and I doubt the blender I used really chopped things up as well as was needed, though.
