Equipment
- 1 food processor
- 1 frying pan or barbecue grill
- 1 grill
Instructions
- Place the beans, ½ cup breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, coriander, 1 tablespoon oil, salt and pepper into a food processor and process gently until combined but still chunky.
- Remove mixture and gently roll into 6 balls and then press into patties. Dredge each patty in the remaining breadcrumbs and set aside.
- Bring a frying pan or barbecue grill to a medium heat, then add 3 tablespoons oil. Carefully add each patty and cook on each side for about 2 minutes until golden. Add a slice of cheese to the cooked side of the patty. Remove the patty from the heat when the cheese has melted.
- In the meantime, slice and toast the buns under the grill. Spread the bottom half of the bun with avocado, add salad greens, and butter the top half.
- Place the bean patty on top of the greens, top with tomato, a dollop of sour cream and the other half of hamburger bun.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
Tip
Make each patty an appropriate size for whoever will be eating it – this recipe will make six adult portions so you could get 10 smaller patties out of the mixture for kids.
Variation
For extra crunch, feel free to stick a few good-quality corn chips inside the burger before you serve.
