Ingredients
1 cans black beans, drained and rinsed
1 shallots or one medium-sized onion, finely chopped
1⁄2 green bell pepper, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1⁄2 tbsp chili garlic sauce
1⁄4 cup cashews
1⁄4 cup crumbled feta
11⁄2 tbsp olive oil, divided
1⁄2 egg
3⁄8 cup panko breadcrumbs
Instructions
Step 1
Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
Step 2
Spread beans on a lined baking sheet, separating beans as much as possible.
Step 3
Roast for 20 minutes, until beans are mostly split open and the skin is beginning to look crunchy. Allow beans to cool while preparing the other ingredients.
Step 4
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and pepper, and cook until softened, stirring frequently. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, stirring constantly.
Step 5
Add chili garlic sauce and stir/cook until combined, less than a minute.
Step 6
Transfer contents to a large mixing bowl.
Step 7
Chop cashews and beans separately in the food processor or blender with a pulse setting. Pulse until roughly chopped.
Step 8
Add food processor contents to a mixing bowl. Add egg, crumbled feta, breadcrumbs, and salt and pepper to taste.
Step 9
Fold together gently. Make bean mixture into patties of desired size.
Step 10
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add bean patties, allowing room between them, and cook until they brown, about 5 minutes. Gently flip and cook until the other side is browned, about 5 minutes longer.
Step 11
Serve on whole wheat buns with desired condiments.
