Vegan black bean burger

With a full-on flavour and meaty texture, suitable for the grill, this fully loaded vegan burger is an absolute must at any barbecue

Ingreadient:

    • olive oil

    • 400g tin black beans, rinsed and drained well
    • 100g from a pouch cooked brown rice
    • 1 onion, finely chopped or grated
    • 1 tsp fennel seeds, crushed
    • ½ tsp garlic salt
    • 1 tsp smoked paprika
    • 25g panko breadcrumbs
    • finely chopped to make 1 tbsp flat-leaf parsley
    • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
    • 2 tsp 
golden caster sugar
    • 1 red onion, finely sliced
    • 100g silken tofu
    • 1 tsp cider vinegar
    • 1 tsp lemon juice
    • a pinch English mustard powder
    • 1 tsp chipotle paste
    • 1 avocado, peeled and stoned
    • 1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
    • 1/2 red chilli, finely chopped
    • chopped to make 1 tbsp coriander
    • 1/2 lime, juiced
    • 4 vegan or regular buns, halved
    • curly lettuce leaves
    • beef tomato slices
    • ketchup
    • mustard

Directions :

    1. For the pickled onions, mix the vinegar and sugar with a pinch of salt until the sugar dissolves. Add the onion, cover and leave to pickle. To make the chipotle ‘mayo’, put all of the ingredients into a small bender (or use a stick blender) with a pinch of sugar and whizz until very smooth. Add 2 tbsp olive oil, whizz again until it looks like mayonnaise. Season, tip into a bowl, cover and chill.
    2. Mash the avocado with a fork, then stir in the onion, chilli, and coriander. Season and stir in the lime juice, then chill.
    3. To make the burgers, tip all the ingredients into a blender and pulse until combined. Divide into 4 and shape into burger patties. Put onto an oiled baking sheet or plate and chill until you need them, at least 30 minutes.
    4. Heat the barbecue or a griddle pan to high. Brush the burger patties with a little olive oil, then put onto the grill. Cook for 3 minutes then flip, and cook for 3 minutes more. Don’t keep moving the burgers or they will be more likely to break up, and you want a good crust on them.
    5. Lightly char the burger buns on the grill, then spoon in a dollop of the ‘mayo’ to the base. Add a few lettuce leaves. Top with a burger, then add a spoon of guacamole, and a few drained picked onions. Add another spoon of mayo to top, some tomato slices, and sandwich on top. Secure with a skewer if you need to. Serve with mustard or ketchup, if you don’t have your full fix of sauces and toppings!
