Ingredients

Instructions

Drain the canned black beans and place in a steel bowl
Wearing gloves crush the beans till a rough consistency is achieved
Reserve on the side till needed (keep at room temperature)
Place a thick bottom pan over a medium heat and add the oil
Whilst the pan is heating peel and finely chop the onion and garlic
Add the garlic and onion to the pan and cook till softened
Add the spices to the pan and cook for 2 minutes
Add to the pan the roughly chopped mushrooms and cook till they too are softened
Finally add to the pan the cleaned spinach and cook till wilted
Once cooked remove from the heat and add to the bowl with the black beans
Leave to cool uncovered so the steam can escape
Once cool enough to handle add the egg whites to the bowl
Mix all the ingredients together
Once well mixed taste and add seasoning
Once the right taste is achieved shape the mix into 190g patty's
Leave to cool before packing.
It is important to handle these with care as they are not as robust as beef burgers and could break.
