I would add some chopped jalapenos.
Quick Black Bean Patties
Everybody loves these tasty, crisp little patties. You can serve them plain or with salsa, and they make nice party bring-alongs: prepare to be asked for the recipe.
One 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 large potato, diced and cooked in boiling water until tender, then drained
1/4 cup grated onion
1/4 cup grated carrot
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves
salt and freshly-ground black pepper to taste
1 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup olive oil
1. Put beans, potato, onion, carrots, parsley, salt and pepper in a food processor and pulse until well blended. Divide the mixture into 4 portions and shape into 4 patties. Coat each patty evenly with breadcrumbs and set on a baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
2. Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Cook patties until golden brown, about 5 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels and serve with salsa on the side, if desired.
Serves 4.
