Southwestern Pinto Bean And Veggie Burgers With Slaw Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium. Add shallot and cook until soft, 3 minutes.
• Pulse shallot, almonds, beans, panko, 1/4 cup roasted peppers, and egg in a food processor until just combined. Season with salt and pepper, fold in feta, and form into four 3 1/2-inch patties.
• Wipe skillet clean; heat remaining oil over medium-high. Cook patties, flipping once, 8 minutes.
• Mix yogurt and remaining 1/4 cup peppers. Spread on burgers and serve, with sprouts, avocado, lemon, and almonds.

Steps:

• In a bowl soak beans in water to cover by 2 inches overnight or quick-soak (procedure follows) and drain.
• In a heavy kettle sauté onions and garlic in oil over moderately high heat, stirring, until pale golden. Add bell peppers and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until softened. Add chili powder and cumin and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Add drained beans and the 6 cups water and simmer, covered partially, until tender, about 1 to 1 1/4 hours.
• While soup is simmering, in a skillet brown chorizo, in batches if necessary, over moderately high heat and transfer to paper towels to drain. Add chorizo to soup with tomatoes, broth, enchilada sauce, and salt to taste and simmer, covered partially and stirring occasionally, 30 minutes. Soup may be made 4 days ahead (cool uncovered before chilling covered).
• Just before serving, stir in lime juice and coriander.
• To quick-soak dried beans:
• In a large saucepan combine dried beans, picked over and rinsed, with triple their volume of cold water. Bring the water to a boil and cook beans, uncovered, over moderate heat 2 minutes. Remove pan from heat and let beans soak 1 hour.
