Ingredients

scaled from 4 servings
  • 2 cans (15 oz each) canned black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 large eggs
  • 1 yellow onion
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 hamburger buns
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 oz, sliced sharp cheddar
  • 5 oz frozen crinkle-cut fries
  • 2 romaine leaves
  • 1 tomato
  • 2 tsp, 1 tsp, 1 tsp chipotle chili powder, cumin, salt

Method (tap to check — screen stays awake)

  1. Heat the oven to 425F, spread the fries in a single layer, and bake 20 to 22 minutes, flipping once, until the edges are blistered and crisp.
  2. Dry the beans on a sheet pan for 5 minutes; wet beans make patties that fall apart.
  3. Mash three-quarters of the beans to a coarse paste, leaving the rest whole for texture.
  4. Mix in the panko, eggs, grated onion, minced garlic, cumin, half the chipotle powder, and salt until the mixture holds a ball that does not slump.
  5. Form four thick patties and chill 10 minutes so they set.
  6. Sear in the olive oil over medium 4 to 5 minutes per side, until a dark crust forms and the patty lifts cleanly from the pan; lay cheddar on top the last minute to melt.
  7. Stir the remaining chipotle powder into the mayonnaise, spread on toasted buns, and build with lettuce and tomato; serve the fries alongside.
