It would seem that what's new can be found in cutlets? It turns out you can! If you cook them from beans. Few would guess that they do not have meat. At the same time, the taste of the product will be unusual.

The recipe for bean patties was created at the request of a regular reader Oksana Dzhuman, who has already prepared so many recipes from the culinary site Picantecooking that she can already be called a professional tester. Of course, I am very pleased and I really appreciate such trust of my readers and I try to embody their wishes on my site. There were no bean cutlets on my culinary site, and at the request of Oksana, after much thought about what they should be, collecting theoretical materials, I created them. And as a result, these bean cutlets, despite the fact that they are lean, have a very delicate, almost creamy texture, a crispy crust and an unusual taste thanks to spices and baked onions.

Beans for cutlets are soaked in water with the addition of soda. This is necessary so that the walls of the beans soften even after boiling, the outer shell of the beans is so soft that it is not felt after grinding, and the bean cutlets have a uniform texture.

Potatoes are necessary so that the cutlets have a delicate texture. Without it, they would seem dry and hard. Onions also add juiciness, as well as a sweetish taste. Therefore, you can’t do delicious simple bean cutlets without anything either. In minced meat, even meat cutlets, so that they are juicy, contain a lot of onions. But even so, despite the various additions, the taste of beans dominates in these cutlets and this is the main thing.

While preparing these cutlets, I had a dilemma. Add flour or not. Without flour, the cutlets turned out very, very tender, but it was almost impossible to fry them. Of course, an experienced hostess will cope with the roast, be able to deftly turn them over and maybe everything would be in order. But I create recipes that everyone should feel comfortable with. Therefore, after all, I added flour, although in a small amount, it became much easier to fry bean cutlets. The consistency has become a little less tender, but the shape has become more beautiful and they can be turned over without fear of falling apart, although this must be done with care. And when shaping, first you need to form a ball in your hands, and give them the final shape when running in flour, since the mass sticks to your hands and this is normal. However, so that the bean patties remain tender. But if you're desperate for flourless bean patties, you can try it with the patience to fry.

I added a small amount of spices and granulated garlic to the cutlets. They fit so organically into the overall flavor range that it is difficult to imagine these bean cutlets without them. The taste of the bean itself is quite simple, so it is worth enriching it a little. Although, of course, you can not add them. The main value of these lean bean patties is in the proportions of the main ingredients.

Parsley pesto sauce goes well with bean patties. I gave his recipe earlier in the recipe But the pesto sauce is not lean due to the presence of cheese. You can make it a little thinner, without cheese, or add more nuts instead of cheese. It will also be very tasty.
