Recipe type: Lunch and Dinner
Ingredients
  • 1 jar organic red kidney beans
  • 1 cup quick cook rice and quinoa
  • 2 heaping tbsp mild salsa
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 onion, finely diced
  • 3 spring onions, finely chopped
  • 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tbsp shoyu, or to taste
  • ½ cup finely chopped fresh coriander
  • 1 cup sourdough breadcrumbs
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl mash the kidney beans with a fork or potato masher, then add the cooked rice and mix well along with the salsa.
  2. Cook the rice according to the packet instructions.
  3. In a pan warm the sesame oil and sauté the garlic and onion along with the spring onions, herbs, spices and shoyu.
  4. Sauté until the onion is soft. If you prefer spicy burgers, you may add a teaspoon of Tabasco sauce.
  5. Remove from the pan and add this mixture to the beans along with the fresh coriander.
  6. Stir in the breadcrumbs and mix well, squeezing the ingredients together with your hands.
  7. Heat a heavy based pan and warm up some organic sunflower oil.
  8. Cook the burgers for 4 to 5 minutes each side until crisp and golden. They will ‘blacken’ slightly because of the beans.
  9. Serve with a selection of vegetables, my sweet french fries, or simply stack some salad greens, cucumber, pickles on toasted sourdough and top with your favorite salsa.
  10. Here I have served these delicious burgers with some baked pumpkin slices, salad greens topped with sauerkraut, alongside a serving of miso relish and some vegan mayonnaise. Totally scrumptious!
