Home made bean burgers are easy to prepare, and offer one huge advantage over the bought variety; adjusting flavours to match your taste is easy.

Here, you can use more or less chili and Thai green curry paste according to your tolerance for heat. Likewise, if you like cool coriander, just use more!

Fuss Free Top Tips for Thai Green Curry Spicy Bean Burgers

We love ready diced frozen onion. Cooked from frozen, there’s no problems of weeping eyes while slicing onion. We even add onions we’ve diced ourself to the bag: should a recipe (like this one) call for half an onion, dice and freeze the remainder so there’s no half onion to deal with in the fridge.

Japanese Panko breadcrumbs are so versatile, it always worth making sure there are some in the cupboard. If you can’t find gluten-free ones, you can use cornmeal or coarse polenta instead.

You can cook dried beans and use them: soak well before cooking. I find, however, that the tinned variety are so easy to use and economical that I’m a big fan of always having a can or two in the cupboard.

The ingredients for green Thai curry spicy bean burgers. Two bowls of beans, a potato, an onion, two chilis, green thai curry paste in a small bowl, fresh coriander leaves, and a lime and a lemon.

How do I Make Thai Green Curry Spicy Bean Burgers?

First, peel and chop the potatoes. Chop medium sized potatoes into about eight pieces. Boil in a large saucepan of salted water for ten minutes, until soft. Drain.

Second, dice the onion into cubes of about 0.5 cm. Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium to low heat and gently cook the onions until translucent and just starting to colour.

Third, Drain and rinse the two tins of beans. Add to a large bowl, and add the cooked onion, mashed potato, Thai green curry paste, lemon and lime zest, tamari, and flour.

Using a potato masher, mash everything together. Add enough flour to hold it all together.  Don’t worry about getting a smooth paste: just crush the beans enough to hold together in a patty.

Fourth, form the patties. It’s easiest to make balls of the mixture, and then flatten them. Pour the panko breadcrumbs onto a plate, and dip each patty into the breadcrumbs to coat.

Place each patty onto a baking sheet covered with a silicone mat or grease-proof paper. Place in the freezer for about 30 minutes, or in the fridge for a couple of hours.

Fifth, fry the patties. Heat the Mazola Corn oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Once hot, fry the patties two or three at a time, depending on the size of your frying pan. Turn the patties once only each.

Sixth. Dice the mango, finely slice coriander leaves and chili, and mix with a squeeze of lime juice.

Seven. Serve! Top patties with the mango salsa, and serve with your favourite salad, we love them served with my asian slaw.

These bean burgers really benefit from a generous glug of oil to fry them in. This means that using a quality oil makes a real difference.

We used Mazola corn oil: it’s 100% pure corn that’s been extracted from the kernel at its peak. With a clean and subtle taste, it’s high in Omega 6 polyunsaturated fat, and is a good source of plant sterols. These have been proven to lower cholesterol.

We don’t just use it for frying, though: it’s great for roasting and sauteing as well. If you liked this, you may also like my spicy bean burgers.
