Ingredients
Sweet potatoes - 2
oil - as needed
Brown rice - 1 1/2 cups (cooked) Or any rice that you've
Canned black beans - 1 cup (rinsed and drained)
Scallion - 1/2 cup (chopped)
Walnuts - 1/2 cup (finely chopped)
cumin pdr - 2 1/2 tsp.
red chili pdr- 1 tsp. or to taste
Salt and Pepper - as needed
Light brown sugar - 1 tbsp. (optional)
Preparations:
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Cut the sweet potatoes lengthwise, rub
with olive oil and place face down on a lined baking sheet.
Bake until
soft and tender (about 30 minutes) then remove from oven, reducing the
heat to 375°F.
Cook the rice. Mash half the beans in a bowl and add the rest.
Season with some salt.
Add the cooked sweet potatoes to the bowl, mash
it.
Add one cup rice, scallions, chopped walnuts and spices.
Combine well and taste, adjusting the seasoning accordingly.
If the
mixture feels too wet, add more rice or walnuts, keeping a moist but
moldable texture.
Mold your sweet potato mix into patties -the thinner they are, the
faster they'll cook.
Once all the burgers are ready, bake for 30 to 45
minutes, flipping them after 20 minutes.
Serve on buns and top each bun with slices of avocado, red onion,
some greens and ketchup or salsa.
Tip:
Notice that all measures for lentils are for cooked ones, so when you
cook them, use a little less than specified as they will swell. In India, you can use red / white lobia/ karamani to get the similar texture.
In case, you don't have cooked rice, you can use rice flour and to get little crisp texture add some suji/rava.
