Original Recipe Yield 6 patties
 

Ingredients

  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon Thai chile sauce
  • 1 teaspoon yellow curry paste
  • 2 tablespoons coconut milk
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup Italian bread crumbs
  • 1 (1 pound) package crumbled tofu
  • 1 (12 ounce) package vegetarian burger crumbles
  •  
  • 1 cup chunky peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon Thai chile sauce
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 dash soy sauce (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  •  
  • 6 whole wheat hamburger buns
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup shredded cucumber
  • 1 tablespoon chopped green onion
  • 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves

Directions

  1. Blend the black beans, red onion, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon chile sauce, curry paste, coconut milk, 1 teaspoon brown sugar, cayenne pepper, and egg in a food processor until smooth. Scrape the mixture into a large bowl. Fold the bread crumbs and burger crumbles into the mixture. Form the mixture into 6 patties and place on waxed paper. Put in freezer for up to 30 minutes for patties to set.
  2. Prepare a grill pan or skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat. Cook the patties until browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side.
  3. Meanwhile, combine the peanut butter, 1 teaspoon chile sauce, 1 teaspoon brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, turmeric, soy sauce, and canola oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook and stir until the peanut butter is melted. Reduce heat to low and simmer until hot, 3 to 5 minutes.
  4. Arrange patties on bottoms of hamburger buns. Drizzle sauce over each patty; top with carrot, cucumber, green onion, mint, and cilantro. Top with remaining bun halves and serve immediately.
