BLACK BEAN CAKES RECIPE
6 1/2 cups black beans
1/2 cup salsa
1/2 cup diced red onion
1 1/4 red bell peppers, diced
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 cups bread crumbs
1 tablespoon diced jalapeño peppers
1/2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1 teaspoon Tabasco jalapeño sauce
2 cups crushed tortilla chips
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon coriander
2 tablespoons olive oil
Rinse black beans in cold water. Place in a colander and drain well (at least 10 minutes). Add all ingredients except tortilla chips, cumin, coriander, and olive oil to a mixing bowl. Blend well with hands, mashing some of the beans to form a thick mixture. Form into 3-ounce patties and set aside. Using a food processor, blend tortilla chips, cumin, and coriander until it is a crumb consistency. Dredge each bean patty in the tortilla mixture. Heat oil in large skillet and sauté bean cakes over medium-high heat, turning when they are golden brown.
