Serves: 2
Ingredients
- 1 tin of black beans
- 1 tsp stock powder
- 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
- 1 red onion, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp ground flax seed
- ½ cup cooked rice
- ½ tbsp toasted sesame seeds
- ½ tbsp cumin seeds, toasted and ground
- ½ tbsp coriander seeds, toasted and ground
- Half a handful of each - flat parsley, coriander, mint
- ½ tbsp of yeast extract
- Salt to taste
- 4 portobello mushrooms
- 2 tbsp tamari
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 tsp hot smoked paprika
- 2 large ripe tomatoes
- Baby spinach
Method
- Preheat your oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6. Drain and rinse the beans well and put them into a large bowl. Add the stock powder, garlic, red onion, flax, rice, sesame seeds, spices, herbs, yeast extract and a little salt and blend using a hand blender or food processor until smooth.
- Mould the mixture into the burger shapes with your hands, or roll out between two sheets of baking paper and cut out with a glass. Bake in the oven for around 30 minutes.
- Remove stems from the mushrooms carefully, without breaking the caps. Put the mushrooms in a large bowl with the tamari, water and paprika. Turn the mushrooms over so that they are covered with the sauce. Bake the mushrooms in the oven for 15 minutes.
- Slice the tomatoes, place the spinach on your plate, assemble the burgers with the tomatoes to serve.
