WHITE BEAN BURGERS



White Bean Burgers image

These have a delicate texture and a wonderful savory taste. They're a little tricky to turn, as they can fall apart. Don't make them too thick and use an offset spatula, and it will be easier for you. They should be cooked on a flat griddle or pan; don't try to grill them on a barbecue.

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 patties

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cans white beans, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
Salt to taste
2 to 3 large garlic cloves (to taste), green shoots removed, minced
2/3 cup finely grated carrot
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
2 teaspoons minced fresh sage or thyme
1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs
1 egg, beaten
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Whole grain hamburger buns and the condiments of your choice

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a medium-size skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add a pinch of salt, the garlic and the grated carrot, and continue to cook for another minute or two, until fragrant and the carrot has softened slightly. Remove from the heat.
  • In a food processor fitted with the steel blade, puree the beans with the lemon juice. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the onion mixture, the parsley, sage or thyme, the bread crumbs and the egg. Season to taste. Shape into patties, ½- to ¾-inch thick. Set on a parchment-covered baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
  • Heat the remaining oil in a large, heavy skillet or on a griddle over medium heat and brown the patties for 4 minutes on each side, being very careful when you turn them over. An offset spatula works well for this. Serve on whole grain buns, with the condiments of your choice.

Tips:

  • Soak the white beans overnight or for at least 6 hours before cooking. This will help them cook more evenly and reduce the cooking time.
  • Use a food processor to chop the vegetables. This will save you time and effort, and it will also help to create a more uniform texture for the burgers.
  • Don't overcook the burgers. They should be cooked through, but they should still be moist and tender. Overcooked burgers will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the burgers on buns with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, and ketchup.
  • These burgers can also be served over a bed of rice or quinoa, or with a side of roasted vegetables.

Conclusion:

White bean burgers are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional beef burgers. They are packed with protein, fiber, and vitamins, and they are also low in fat and calories. These burgers are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a healthy and satisfying lunch, white bean burgers are a great option.
