Deliciously Ella's Black Bean Burgers
My favourite post work-out dinner, these really take just ten minutes to throw together and they’re so satisfying! If you...
Ingredients
- 2 x 400g cans of black beans, drained and rinsed
- 100g gram flour
- 3 tbsp tomato purée
- 2 tbsp apple purée
- 1 tsp chilli powder
- 2 tsp tamari
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- juice of 1/2 lime
- to taste salt and pepper
- to shallow fry coconut oil
Method
- Put the beans in a large mixing bowl. Mash them with a fork until they’re pretty mushy, but not totally smooth there should still be some whole beans in the mix.
- Stir in all the remaining ingredients, except the coconut oil.
- Heat a saucepan with a little coconut oil, then place 1 heaped tablespoon of the mix into the centre of the pan. Shape it into a circle and then spread it out a little so it's just a couple of centimetres thick. Repeat to form 4 burgers in the pan. Let the burgers cook for about 1 minute on each side, flipping them so that they cook equally.
- Then do the same thing with the remaining burger mixture, keeping the cooked burgers warm while you cook the rest.
- Kitchen Know-How - I know the apple purée might sound a weird ingredient, but please don’t leave it out, it really helps stick the burgers together and it adds a delicious flavour!Recipe extracted from Deliciously Ella Every Day by Ella Woodward, published by Yellow Kite. © Ella Woodward 2016.
