Black Bean Burgers (Mexican style) instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375 F. Spread beans evenly onto a lined baking sheet & bake for 15 mins until slightly dried out (this is important to reduce mushiness of the beans).

2. Meanwhile saute olive oil, red pepper, mushrooms, green onion & minced garlic until soft. Gently blot some of the moisture out..

3. Place sauteed mixture in a large bowl with the remaining ingredients (except beans). Stir together & then add the black beans. Mash with a fork, leaving some larger chunks of beans..

4. Form into patties. Bake at 375 F for 10 mins each side or grill 8 mins each side. Melt cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese on top..

On the show I used this homemade black bean recipe, but it's much easier just to crack open a couple of cans of seasoned black beans.

Dry the beans: Spreading a few cans of rinsed and drained black beans onto a sheet tray and popping them into the oven dries them out, ensuring your patties won't be mushy.

You'll know they're ready when the beans feel dry and are beginning to split.

Let cool on the tray for a few minutes before adding them to the food processor.
