Chilli Bean Sliders

Serves 4

Ingredients

2 x 400g cans chilled kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1 yellow pepper, deseeded and finely diced
2 spring onions, finely chopped
Handful of coriander leaves, torn
4 tbsp rolled oats
1 tsp mild chilli powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp fine sea salt
6 tbsp sunflower oil, for frying
8 mini white bread buns (ensure vegan)
4 pickled gherkins, sliced
Sweetcorn salsa, to serve (recipe below)

Method

In a large bowl, mash the chilled kidney beans using a fork (or squeeze in your hands) until just a few beans remain whole. The mixture should be semi-smooth.

Add the yellow pepper, spring onions, coriander, oats, chilli powder, smoked paprika, and sea salt, then stir until everything is combined into a dense mixture.

Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Make eight ball shapes from the bean mixture, then flatten into patties. Carefully place in the hot pan and cook for 4 minutes on each side, flipping with a spatula.

Serve the sliders in toasted or warmed mini bread buns, with sliced gherkins and a spoonful of sweetcorn salsa.
