  62 Ingredients</h2>
  63
  64 <p class="first">Combine the basic bean patty with a binder of your choosing, and add a
  65 spice blend. Quantities for the binder and spices here are based on
  66 one unit of bean patty mixture.</p>
  67
  68 <h3><a name="sec2" id="sec2"></a>
  69 Basic Bean Patty</h3>
  70
  71 <ul>
  72 <li>850g black beans cooked (2x425g cans no salt added black beans),
  73
  74 <ul>
  75 <li>816g after draining</li>
  76 <li>689g after drying in oven</li>
  77 </ul></li>
  78 <li>1-2 tbsp sesame oil (for frying patties)</li>
  79 </ul>
  80
  81 <p>or</p>
  82
  83 <ul>
  84 <li>700g cooked from dry beans</li>
  85 </ul>
  86
  87 <p>Makes six to eight patties.</p>
  88
  89
  90 <h3><a name="sec3" id="sec3"></a>
  91 Binder</h3>
  92
  93 <ul>
  94 <li>1/4 cup vital wheat gluten</li>
  95 <li>1/2 cup panko flakes</li>
  96 </ul>
  97
  98 <p>Mix panko flakes and vital wheat gluten together.</p>
  99
 100
 101 <h3><a name="sec4" id="sec4"></a>
 102 Spices</h3>
 103
 104 <ul>
 105 <li>2tbsp olive oil (for sauteing onions)</li>
 106 <li>1/2 large white onion</li>
 107 <li>2 Serrano peppers</li>
 108 <li>1 habanero pepper</li>
 109 <li>1 Sweet bell pepper (red, orange, yellow &mdash; doesn't matter)</li>
 110 <li>8 cloves garlic</li>
 111 <li>1 tbsp cumin</li>
 112 <li>1/2 tbsp maras biberi flakes or aleppo pepper flakes</li>
 113 <li>3/4 tsp dried ground ginger</li>
 114 </ul>
 115
 116 <p>If you want this to be less spicy, either the habanero or Serrano
 117 peppers can be left out (If I had to choose, I'd drop the Serrano
 118 peppers as I find a habanero pepper complements the sweet bell pepper
 119 more, unless you can get ripe Serrano peppers).</p>

 124 Directions</h2>
 125
 126 <h3><a name="sec6" id="sec6"></a>
 127 Prepare Canned Beans</h3>
 128
 129 <p class="first">Stolen from <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/03/the-best-black-bean-burger-recipe.html">Serious Eats</a>, canned black beans should be dehydrated a
 130 bit.</p>
 131
 132 <ol>
 133 <li>Preheat oven to 350°F</li>
 134 <li>Drain beans, discarding liquid. Don't rinse.</li>
 135 <li>Spread beans on foil lined baking sheet with sides</li>
 136 <li>Place in oven for ~15 minutes</li>
 137 </ol>
 138
 139 <p>If using beans cooked from dry beans, this can probably be skipped?</p>
 140
 141
 142 <h3><a name="sec7" id="sec7"></a>
 143 Sauteed Herbs and Vegetables</h3>
 144
 145 <ol>
 146 <li>Dice white onion</li>
 147 <li>Dice bell pepper</li>
 148 <li>Mince hot peppers and garlic</li>
 149 <li>Retain half uncooked of onions/peppers/garlic uncooked. Drain
 150 while sauteing other half.</li>
 151 <li>Saute onion, peppers, and garlic with olive oil until onions are
 152 lightly browned</li>
 153 <li>Squeeze in paper towel after cooled to drain any excess moisture
 154 and oil. Do the same for the uncooked vegetables (gently).</li>
 155 </ol>
 156
 157
 158 <h3><a name="sec8" id="sec8"></a>
 159 Combine!</h3>
 160
 161 <ol>
 162 <li>Mix dry spices before and beans in bowl <strong>before</strong> mashing (this seems
 163 to help diffuse the spices more consistently).</li>
 164 <li>Mash beans to desired consistency in a mixing bowl. Mostly paste
 165 with some partially mashed beans is good.</li>
 166 <li>Mix in garlic, peppers, and onions</li>
 167 <li>Mix in binder</li>
 168 </ol>
 169
 170 <p>Grab a ball of the mixture and form into a patty. It should be almost
 171 as robust as a murder burger so should be able to handle being
 172 squished into whatever shape by hand.</p>
 173
 174
 175 <h3><a name="sec9" id="sec9"></a>
 176 Cook</h3>
 177
 178 <ol>
 179 <li>Pan fry over medium-high heat for ~4 minutes per side (until
 180 outside is browned and a bit crispy). Cooking spray or oil will be
 181 needed to keep it from burning. Brushing the burgers with sesame
 182 oil works well (one side at a time, just before putting into pan
 183 and just before flipping).</li>
 184 </ol>
 185
 186
 187
 188 <h2><a name="sec10" id="sec10"></a>
 189 TODO</h2>
 190
 191 <p class="first">Increased onion and garlic, not sure if more dry spices are also
 192 needed.</p>
 193
 194 <p>At least needs more cumin... taste is a bit &quot;empty&quot;. Thinking that
 195 cumin should be doubled. Maybe add some ground pistachios or even a
 196 bit of tahina as well.</p>
