Ingredients:


200 grams soybeans

100 grams black turtle beans

100 grams black-eyed peas

100 grams cooked brown rice

50 grams salted black beans

3 large eggs -- beaten

125 grams flour

1/4 cup onion -- minced

1/4 cup tahini

2 tablespoons mustard

2 tablespoons tamari

2 tablespoons parsley

1 teaspoon thyme

1 teaspoon cumin

1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

2 cloves garlic -- crushed

1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper

2 tablespoons oil
 

Preparation / Directions:


1. Cook the soybeans, black beans, and black-eyed peas until done. This will take about 3 hours of boiling or 1 hour if soaked overnight. Drain. Let cool. 2. Mash up the cooked beans and add the rice, salted black beans, eggs, onion, tahini, mustard, tamari, and all the spices. Mix thoroughly, then mix in the flour. Adjust the seasoning. (This mixture may be stored several days in the refrigerator. It also may be frozen). 3. To cook the beanburger, heat about 30 ml oil in a pan. Place about 1/3 cup of the bean mix in the oil and flatten with a spatula. (Hm. Doesn't sound like you can make patties from it. Perhaps you'd better put some foil on the grill). Cook on both sides until well browned. A little tamari dropped on the burger while it is cooking adds to the flavor. 4. Serve in pita bread. Garnish with your choice of tomato slices, onions, lettuce, mustard, mayonnaise, or ketchup. (I opt for OVO-LACTO and ask for cheese melted on top). Difficulty : easy. Precision : measure ingredie
