For Assembling

Instructions

Prepare the veggie mixture

In a large bowl, mash the black beans with a fork until mostly smooth. Add the brown rice, grated carrot, grated zucchini, onion, garlic, soy sauce, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

Pro tip: Ensure the mixture is well combined to help the patties hold together.

Form the patties

Add breadcrumbs to the mixture and mix until you can form a cohesive dough. Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a patty.

Pro tip: If the mixture is too wet, add more breadcrumbs.

Chill the patties

Place the patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

Pro tip: Chilling helps the patties hold their shape better during cooking.

Cook the patties

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a little oil and cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Pro tip: Avoid overcrowding the skillet; cook in batches if necessary.

Assemble the burgers

Toast the burger buns lightly in the oven or on a skillet. Place a layer of lettuce on the bottom bun, followed by a patty, a slice of cheese, tomato slices, another patty, and more cheese if using. Top with condiments of choice.

Pro tip: Toasting the buns adds a delightful crunch to your burger.

Serve and enjoy

Serve the assembled burgers immediately with your favourite sides.

Pro tip: Pair with sweet potato fries or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
