Quinoa and Kidney Bean Burgers

Ingredients

1/4 cup (50g) Uncooked Quinoa
1/2 cup (115ml) Water
1/2 A White Onion
1 clove garlic
1 tsp Chilli Powder
1/2 tsp Ground Cumin
1 (400g/14oz) can Kidney Beans
2 tbsp Soy Sauce
salt and pepper

Preparation

1
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the quinoa and water in a saucepan and cover with a lid. Bring to a boil. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat so that it's simmering. Cook until all the water has been absorbed by the quinoa, then fluff it up with a fork.
2
Drain and rinse the kidney beans and place them in a large bowl. Mash thoroughly with a fork.
3
Dice the onion and saute on a medium heat with a little olive oil for 2-3 minutes until the onion starts to become translucent. Mince the garlic clove and add to the pan, stir it around and cook for a further minute.
4
Add the chilli powder and cumin to the onion mix and cook for 2 minutes until the spices are fragrant. Add the whole mixture to the bowl with the beans.
5
Also add the quinoa into the bean bowl with the soy sauce and mix everything together. If desired, season with a little salt and pepper.
6
Shape the mixture into 4 burgers about 1 inch thick. Place on a flat baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for 8 minutes. Then, carefully flip the burgers using a spatula and bake for another 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for around 5 minutes before serving.
