Preparation

Step 1

After the beans have soaked overnight, drain the water and rinse them.

Heat the oil in the pressure cooker and add the beans and the spices.

Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add 5 cups of water (1.2 liters) and lock the lid into place.

Bring beans to pressure and cook for 25 minutes.

Once the pressure has gone down, drain the water from the beans and set aside for now.

Once you’re ready to make the burgers, here are the additional ingredients you will need.

1 cup grated carrot (110g)

1 cup cooked quinoa (150g)

All of the beans that you cooked in the pressure cooker (about 2 cups / 465g)

1 teaspoon salt (6g)
•Preheat oven to 350°.
•Place the carrots, quinoa, beans and salt in the food processor and blend until everything is mixed up.
•Place the mixture in a large bowl and make 6 equal sized patties.
•Bake on a baking sheet for 15 minutes on one side, flip and bake for an additional 15 minutes.

Note: Use canned beans if you don’t want to make you own. If you use canned, add all of the spices to your food processor from above in the bean recipe. Whatever type of beans you use, make sure you don’t add any liquid along with them. You want them to be as dry as possible so that the patties can form easily. If for some reason the patties are too wet, add a little rice flour and stir
