Instructions
Burger patty
Step 1:
Add cooked black beans to a large bowl. Using a potato masher, mash beans until pasty with a few chunks of beans left.
Step 2:
Add all remaining burger patty ingredients, except the oil, and mix well until all ingredients are equally distributed.
Taste the bean paste for an additional pinch of salt and pepper to your preferred taste.
Step 3:
Equally distribute the bean paste into 4 portions and roll into balls. Flatten the balls to shape 4 large burger patties.
Step 4:
In a non-stick pan on medium-high heat, add the oil. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the patties and reduce the heat to medium. It is important to give the patties enough time to brown without touching them. After about 3 minutes you can flip the patties. Once flipped, add a slice of vegan cheese to each patty. Give them another 3 minutes until the bottom side is nicely brown and the cheese starts to melt.
Salsa topping
Step 5:
Add all the salsa topping ingredients to a bowl and mix until well combined.
Putting it together
Step 6:
Lightly toast the burger buns in a pan.
Step 7:
Put the burger together by adding some mayo to both sides of the bun. Add the burger patty and cheese to the bottom half and add a generous amount of the salsa topping. Add a handful of shredded lettuce and finish it off with the top half of the burger bun.
