Servings: persons

1 (16 ounce) can black beans, drained, rinsed, & Dried
1/2 green bell pepper, cut into small pieces (or just grate it)
1/2 onion, grated
1 tablespoon garlic paste (I use the Indian Brand Mother's recipe look for a sort of stringy paste or grate your own)
1 egg
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon cumin
3 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 - 2 cups plain breadcrumbs (cups-eyeball it)

1
If baking, preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), and lightly oil a baking sheet.
2
Place a paper towel in bowl and put rinsed beans inside (this is important dry beans help this stick together).
3
In a medium bowl, mash black beans with a fork until thick and pasty.
4
In a food processor, finely chop bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Then stir into mashed beans. (I use my grater when this is not an option).
5
In a small bowl, stir together egg, chili powder, black pepper, and cumin.
6
Stir the egg mixture into the mashed beans. Mix in bread crumbs until the mixture is sticky and holds together. Divide mixture into 4-8 patties depending your size preference for me 1/2 a can of beans makes 4 small sized patties. I prefer the baked version.
7
If baking, place patties on lightly prepped baking sheet, and bake about 10 minutes on each side.
8
If frying lightly coat pan with oil and fry on medium low heat until browned and crispy.
