Black Bean Cakes with Roasted Red Pepper Vinaigrette
Recipe Brought to you by FoodFit
This recipe serves: 4
Preparation time: 30 minutes
Cooking time: 1 hour 45 minutes
1/2 cup roasted red pepper vinaigrette
1 cup dried black beans
1 large yellow onion, peeled and roughly chopped
1 large green bell pepper, seeded and roughly chopped
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ***in
1/4 teaspoon coriander seeds
1/4 teaspoon salt
pinch cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
Place the beans in a colander and rinse with cold running water. Pick over
the beans and remove any stones or foreign objects. Place the beans in a
clean pot, cover with fresh water and soak for at least 4 hours or
preferably overnight. Drain the beans. Place the beans, onion, pepper,
garlic, pepper, ***in, coriander seeds, salt and cayenne pepper in a large
pot. Cover with water, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until the
beans are tender, about 1 hour. Drain the liquid from the beans and
reserve for later use. Divide the cooked beans in half. Place one ****tion
in a large saucepan and add 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking liquid. Cook
over medium heat until the beans are very soft, about 30 minutes; if
necessary, add in liquid while cooking.
Drain the beans, reserving the cooking liquid, and place in a large mixing
bowl. Mash the beans with a fork until they are smooth and fluffy. If the
mixture is too thick, dilute with some of the reserved bean cooking
liquid. Blend in the reserved ****tion of the beans with a spoon and allow
the mixture to cool. Form the bean mixture into 8 individual cakes. Heat
the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add 2 bean cakes at a
time and gently saute on both sides, cooking for about 1 minute on each
side. Warm the vinaigrette. Place 2 cakes on each plate and spoon the
vinaigrette over and around the cakes.
