01
Step 1
Start by bringing the vegetable broth, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil to a boil in a saucepan. Once it’s boiling, stir in the quinoa, then lower the heat, cover the pot, and let it simmer until the quinoa is tender, about 20 minutes. Take it off the heat and let it cool for a bit.

Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the black beans, eggs, bread, water, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mash everything together until it’s well mixed but still has some texture. Then, add the cooled quinoa and give it a good stir to combine.

Step 3
Heat some canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Scoop out about half a cup of the mixture for each patty, shape them with your hands, and place them in the hot skillet. Cook the patties until they’re golden brown on one side, about 3 minutes, then flip and cook the other side for another 3 minutes.

Step 4
Once cooked, transfer the patties to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Serve warm and enjoy!
