Ingredients
For the Patty:
- 1 medium purple yam peeled and diced
- 1/2 cup black beans cooked and drained
- 2 tbsp black sesame seeds
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs use gluten-free if necessary
- 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Miso Glaze:
- 1 tbsp miso paste
- 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp rice vinegar
- 1 tsp sesame oil
For Assembly:
- 2 black sesame seed buns
- 1 small avocado sliced
- 1/2 cup daikon radish thinly sliced
- Fresh cilantro optional
Instructions
- Prepare the Purple Yam: Steam or boil the purple yam until tender, about 10-15 minutes. Mash the yams until smooth and let them cool slightly.
- Make the Patties: In a large bowl, combine the mashed purple yam, black beans, black sesame seeds, breadcrumbs, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Form the mixture into 2 patties. If the mixture is too sticky, add a little more breadcrumbs.
- Cook the Patties: Heat a little oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown and heated through.
- Prepare the Miso Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the miso paste, soy sauce, maple syrup, rice vinegar, and sesame oil until smooth.
- Assemble the Burgers: Toast the black sesame seed buns lightly.
- Brush the cooked patties with the miso glaze.
- Place the glazed patty on the bottom bun, followed by slices of avocado, thinly sliced daikon radish, and fresh cilantro if using.
- Top with the other half of the bun.
