White Bean Burgers With Tomato Olive Relish Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a medium-size skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add a pinch of salt, the garlic and the grated carrot, and continue to cook for another minute or two, until fragrant and the carrot has softened slightly. Remove from the heat.
• In a food processor fitted with the steel blade, puree the beans with the lemon juice. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the onion mixture, the parsley, sage or thyme, the bread crumbs and the egg. Season to taste. Shape into patties, ½- to ¾-inch thick. Set on a parchment-covered baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
• Heat the remaining oil in a large, heavy skillet or on a griddle over medium heat and brown the patties for 4 minutes on each side, being very careful when you turn them over. An offset spatula works well for this. Serve on whole grain buns, with the condiments of your choice.

Steps:

• Heat the sunflower oil in a saucepan over a medium heat and cook the red onion, finely chopped, for 5 mins until slightly softened. Add the chopped tomatoes, garlic clove, finely grated, sweet smoked paprika, tomato purée, red wine vinegar and red chilli, if using. Season and simmer for 15-20 mins until the mixture has cooked down and thickened slightly.

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse the 1/4 cup basil and the garlic until finely chopped. Add the Parmigiano, 1/2 cup of the beans, 1/4 cup of the panko, the egg, and 1/2 tsp. salt and process until smooth. Put the remaining beans in a large bowl and coarsely mash with a fork. Add the puréed bean and basil mixture and mix well. Spread the remaining 1/4 cup of panko on a plate. With wet hands, form the bean mixture into four 3/4-inch-thick patties. Coat each patty with the panko, transfer to a plate, cover, and refrigerate for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the tomato, olives, onion, balsamic vinegar, and the remaining 12 basil leaves. Set aside. Heat a heavy-duty 12-inch skillet on high heat until very hot, about 1 minute. Add the oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Cook the burgers, flipping once, until browned, 5 to 8 minutes total. Serve the burgers on the buns, topped with the tomato-olive relish. nutrition information (per serving): Calories (kcal): 400; Fat (g): 15; Fat Calories (kcal): 130; Saturated Fat (g): 3.5; Protein (g): 17; Monounsaturated Fat (g): 8; Carbohydrates (g): 52; Polyunsaturated Fat (g): 2.5; Sodium (mg): 970; Cholesterol (mg): 55; Fiber (g): 9;
