INSTRUCTIONS
INTRO - One of the great delights of these burgers is their wonderful
aroma as they cook.
1) Place bulgur in a small bowl and cover with boiling water. Let
stand 10 minutes. Drain well. Place soaked bulgur in a food processor
with the beans, onion, olive oil, parsley, garlic, jalapeno, salt,
chili powder, cumin and pepper. Process until smooth, scraping down
the sides of the bowl as necessary.
2) Form bean mixture into 4 patties. Carefully dredge patties in the
cornmeal. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add
patties and cook, turning to brown both sides, about 5 minutes.
3) While bean patties are cooking, mash the avocado in a small bowl
and stir in salsa and cilantro.
4) To serve, place bean patties on rolls, top with avocado mixture,
diced tomato and green onions.
