Today I’m sharing the perfect spicy bean burger recipe with you!

A couple of week’s ago we went bowling to a place called TenPin in York and treated ourselves to a cheeky burger and fries while we were there. I had a spicy bean burger and it was honestly the nicest burger I’ve had in a long time!

I’ve been trying to recreate the recipe but I couldn’t pin down the various different tastes and I can’t find any info online so my version is very different to the one I was originally trying to recreate. It’s still a lovely spicy bean burger though so I thought I’d share it with you….

Perfect spicy bean burger recipe….

This is the perfect spicy bean burger recipe - believe me, I spent long enough trying to perfect it. 😉

Ingredients

300 g potato boiled potatoes
400 g canned black beans
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp coriander
1 large onion, , finely chopped
1 green pepper, , finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, , finely chopped
1 tsp dried chilli flakes
2 tsp paprika
2 tbsp breadcrumbs

Instructions

Mash the boiled potatoes and black beans together and set to one side.
In a small amount of oil, fry the onion and peppers along with the chilli,cumin, coriander, garlic and paprika until they're just starting to soften.
Stir the onion and peppers into the potato and bean mix gently.
You can make the mix into burger shapes now if you want by taking a small amount and rolling into a ball. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs into a bowl and squish your bean balls into burger shapes in the bowl to coat them in the breadcrumbs. Be very gentle and use a spatula to transfer to a frying pan where you need to fry the burgers being very careful when you turn it over as they'll be quite fragile.
You could, if you prefer, pop the bean burger mix into the fridge to chill before making the burgers.
They're fab served with a bit of sliced avocado and some cherry tomatoes!

This recipe made 10 burgers but we didn’t need that many so I’ve popped the rest in the freezer.
