Preparation

Step 1

Mash beans well with beaten eggs, veggies and salt. If hot, stir until cool enough to handle. Add flour a little at a time and mix thoroughly. Form into patties about 3" in diameter and 1/2" thick - they'll be rather sticky. Fry in 1/4" or so of hot oil for 2 to 3 minutes on each side; drain before serving. Good with a little soy sauce, ketchup or tomato sauce.
