~ Black Bean-Quinoa Burger & Fries ~
When we make bean burgers, we typically go for the tried and true Jeff Novick burger. However, we somehow are still missing our extra rice from the move....and the thought of replacing it with quinoa intrigued us into looking for a new recipe. We'll bring JN back soon for all you newbies. I have to tell you, his are a LOT quicker and less work intensive. ;0
These are unique though, and for a unique occasion - Jesse's first official art job. :) So proud of you, honey!!
After eating them - realized that I had tasted something similar at The Henry. Fabulous! :)
Nothing goes better with a burger than fries, right? Now, this is JN style. (1) First, microwave the potatoes. Ideally this is done earlier, and the potatoes put in the fridge to make the next step easier. :) We did not do this today of course. (2) So - after they are nice and soft, cut with big knife into quarters or slivers depending on size. If you wet the knife first, it makes a cleaner cut. (3) Lay these out on parchment on a baking sheet, and sprinkle with whatever seasoning you want. You can spritz these with water to help the spices stick. Jesse always goes for Lawry's Season Salt. We've made garlic, chili, cumin, you name it. (4) Broil just a few minutes, until brown and crispy.
Fries were never the same after we found his technique!
