Amaranth and Black Bean Burger
Pan-seared amaranth and black bean patties served with a zesty lime-yogurt sauce, offering a satisfyingly crisp exterior and tender center.
INGREDIENTS
0.5 cup cooked amaranth
0.5 cup canned black beans
2 large egg whites
1.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
0.25 cup red onion
1 cup fresh spinach
1 tsp ground cumin
0.5 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lime juice
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
PREPARATION
Place the rinsed and drained black beans in a medium bowl and mash them with a fork until mostly smooth but with some texture remaining.
Add the cooked amaranth, egg whites, finely diced red onion, chopped spinach, ground cumin, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper to the bowl.
Stir the mixture thoroughly until well combined and form into two equal-sized burger patties.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Carefully place the patties in the skillet and cook for 5 minutes on the first side until a golden-brown crust forms.
Flip the patties gently and cook for another 4-5 minutes until firm and heated through.
In a small bowl, whisk together the non-fat Greek yogurt and lime juice until smooth.
Plate the burgers and top generously with the lime-yogurt sauce before serving.
