KIDNEY BEAN KIEV



Kidney Bean Kiev image

Vegetarian version of "chicken Kiev" from "Favorite Vegetarian Dishes" cookbook. Makes bean patties filled with an herb butter. If you use margarine, this is a vegan dish. I have used an onion instead of a leek and it works well. The original recipe does not call for the spices listed below, only salt and pepper, so you can try it either way. My family tends to like things more flavorful.

Time 50m

Yield 6 patties, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 lb red kidney beans, canned
3 cups breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons butter
1 leek
1 celery
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon coriander powder
1/4 teaspoon garam masala
1/4 cup vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • For garlic butter, put butter, garlic, and parsley in a bowl and blend with a wooden spoon. Place butter on a sheet of baking parchment, and roll into a cigar shape and wrap in the parchment. Chill until needed.
  • With a potato masher, mash the kidney beans in a mixing bowl, and stir in 11/4 cup of bread crumbs until blended.
  • Melt the 2 tablespoons butter in a heavy skillet. Add the leek and celery and saute over low heat, stirring constantly, for 3-4 minutes.
  • Add bean mixture to the skillet, together with parsley, and spices. Mix thoroughly. Remove the pan from heat and cool slightly. Divide into 6 equal portions shaped into ovals.
  • Slice garlic butter into 6 pieces and place a slice in the center of each bean patty. With your hands, mold the bean mixture around the garlic butter to encase it completely.
  • Dip each patty into the beaten egg to coat, and then roll in the remaining bread crumbs.
  • Heat oil in a skillet and cook the patties, turning once, for 7-10 minutes, until golden brown. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beans: For the best texture and flavor, use dried kidney beans that have been soaked overnight. Canned kidney beans can also be used, but they may be softer and less flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the beans: Kidney beans should be cooked until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked beans will be mushy and bland.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, chives, and dill, add a lot of flavor to this dish. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they will not be as flavorful.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: This recipe is a great starting point, but you can feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors. For example, you could add a bit of spice with some chili powder or cumin, or you could add some sweetness with a bit of honey or maple syrup.

Conclusion:

Kidney Bean Kiev is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is a great way to use up leftover kidney beans, and it is also a good source of protein and fiber. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
