Interesting combination, very tasty and easy, May 10, 2005 - 09:23 AM
Reviewer: Skay from Lully, Switzerland
This is a great recipe for those who like unusual combinations in a protein-rich vegetarian dish that is also easy to prepare. I didn't have any black bean flakes, so I simply used regular cooked ones. You just throw everything into a large cutter, make the patties and fry in a little oil. Great with a green salad and some kind of condiment (I puton the table a jar of onions and raisins confit and homemade black olive tapenade, though I think salsa would also be very good. I've edited the recipe somewhat.
