Method

  • step 1

    Put the beans and chickpeas in the bowl of a food processor and blend until smooth. Tip into a bowl and add the cheese, sweetcorn, jalapeños, egg and half the coriander. Season, mix well to combine, then shape into 8 patties.

  • step 2

    Heat the oil in a large frying pan and cook the patties for 4 mins on each side – you may have to do this in batches. Keep them warm in the oven as you go.

  • step 3

    Mix the tomatoes, onion, remaining coriander and lime juice with a little salt. Serve the cakes with salsa and salad leaves, if you like.

As I was making this the other half was saying how nice it smelt. Advised him that I wouldn't be making it again because the mixture was so wet and was breaking up in the pan. However when I tasted it, it was a taste sensation! Lovely kick of heat with the chillies, tasty combination with the…

I found drying the beans thoroughly before mashing with a fork made better cakes than processing them. Added Fresh thyme, parsley, garlic and cracked black pepper (because that is what I had) - and dusted them in flour, dipped in egg and then coated in breadcrumbs before frying in a 1/4 of oil - the…
