How to Prepare Mexican Black Bean Chorizo Burgers with Cilantro-Lime Corn Fritters [Vegan]

For the Burgers:
  1. Cook the bulgur wheat according to package instructions, drain and set aside.
  2. Heat the oil in a small pan. Sauté shallot and garlic until translucent, set aside.
  3. Pulse the beans in a food processor, leaving some structure. Or use your hands or a fork.
  4. Tip the mixture into a bowl and stir in the other ingredients (bulgur, shallot and garlic, spices & seasonings). Season with pepper and salt. Cover and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  5. Form into 4 patties. Heat a pan over medium heat, add some oil and fry until golden on both sides.

For the Fritters:

  3. Cook until golden and crispy on one side, flip and cook until browned on the other side (about 3 minutes per side). Repeat with the remaining batter.
  4. Spread some ranch on the buns, top with a black bean – chorizo patty and a corn fritter, your favorite toppings and an extra drizzle of ranch sauce. Dig in!
