These are really delicious, especially when served with sour cream or the homemade sauce included in this recipe! They are great for Chinese New Year.

Time 25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups dry black beans
1 tablespoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
½ cup plain yogurt
1 tablespoon milk
1 pinch cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Place black beans in a large pot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 1 hour, or until tender.
  • In an electric blender or food processor, process black beans until smooth. Stir in cumin, chili powder, salt, and cilantro; blend. Roll the mixture into balls, allowing 3 tablespoons of mixture per ball.
  • Place balls between sheets of wax paper and press down on the wax paper to form 1/8 inch thick rounds.
  • Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet. Fry the cakes 2 or 3 minutes per side.
  • In a bowl, combine yogurt, milk, and cayenne pepper (to taste). Serve the sauce over the hot black bean cakes.

These cakes were a bit too spicy for my taste, but I'm sure that's just a matter of personal preference. I'll definitely be making them again, maybe with a little less chili powder.

These cakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I might have overcooked them. But the flavor was still good.

These cakes were a bit bland for my taste, but I think that's because I didn't add enough spices. Next time, I'll be sure to add more chili powder and cumin.
