Hi, I have really enjoyed reading your recipes, thank you! I am thinking of making a type of Mexican bean burger, am happy to have a bit of an experiment with chilli, chickpeas, cannellini beans, sweet corn maybe but would be glad of any recipe or assistance anyone may have.
thanks
Paula

All my recipes are on minimins.com as "Petes recipe book!"Just follow the links below.Index on page 93.All my recipe pages are open to all!

The pages on Facebook are just groups to do with SW and only have limited new recipes on them, I have no control who can view them, some are open, others closed, you need to ask to join!


Hi Paula.
I don't have a recipe for a Mexican bean burger but your ingredients sound ok, just drain the liquid out and mix together, season well & try! if the mix keeps on falling apart mix an egg with it first.For a kick add Jalapenos peppers. You can buy a Mexican Style seasoning if you don't have a large choice of spices.
I assume you are a vegetarian as you haven't added any meat, but if you are not then add extra lean beef mince.

Hi pete
thanks for your speedy answer! Yes will have an experiment this afternoon. Not a veggie but love the Mexican bean burgers you can buy with a crispy topping. Was thinking of coating in couscous to give a bit of a crunch- after I have made your Peanut curry which has been tempting me for weeks!

Just logged on to get ideas for dinner tonight, I'm def making the red pepper curry...thanks Peter

 

[becki2009]

Hi pete, instead of using two red peppers coukd these be used.and grt a similar taste do you think? Thanks

 

[bilsat]

Hi Becky.
Yes! give it a try but leave the sweetener out to start with then taste it and only add it if required.
I only made this recipe as I had some red peppers that were going a bit wrinkly and needed to be used quickly!
