My plan was to make sweet potato/black been patties from a cookbook but realized I just cooked all my sweet potatoes, so I decided to to make my own with ingredients I had on hand. We served the patties without buns topped with a cream/salsa sauce. As with most bean patties, they were a little moist, so make sure to fry them until they are crisp on the outside.
Black Bean Patties
1 cup mushrooms, finely chopped
½ orange pepper, finely chopped
1 shallot, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 15 oz. can black beans, mashed
1/2 cup red lentils, cooked
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro
cumin
3/4 cup bread crumbs
Sauce
Soy sour cream
Prepared salsa
Garlic
Green onion
Cilantro
Hot Sauce
Saute' onion, mushrooms, garlic and pepper in olive oil until soft. Add cumin, salt and pepper.
Cook 1/2 cup of red lentils (approximately 10 min.) until soft.
Drain and rinse beans, mash with potato masher.
Add all ingredients together with bread crumbs.
Form into patties and fry in olive oil.
Sauce: Mix all ingredients in food processor. Use as much or little as desired of each ingredient.
