Black Eyed Bean Burger Recipe| Burger Recipes

Last Modified: April 17, 2015

I still remember how frenzied i was, when i went to Mc Donalds for the first time. But i m an odd man out here. I couldnt understand the hype with Mc Donalds. I ve eaten burgers in many places and Mc Donalds burger is certainly not my favorite. There s one burger that still stays in my heart. A burger that did not taste of artificial food flavors and preservatives. A burger made specially with fresh home baked burger buns and patties straight from the skillet. Crunchy cucumber slices and juicy tomatoes slathered with butter and a spicy spread. Ooh. Boy! I remember that burger to its every last detail. Even the little cherry that came on the top along with the toothpick. I ve not had the fortune to eat one such burger after i left Bangalore. Oh, all that deliciousness came for a sum of 35 rupees. Can you believe that? Now, do you all get why i am not starry eyed when its Mc Donalds.

Now, i ve been wanting to recreate that burger experience at home , like forever, now. And the last month, Groovy Gourmets decided the September theme as burgers without the humdrum aloo patties. So, i grabbed the opportunity and made these burgers with black eyed beans patties. I did not bake the buns as i dint have the time to. But i do have a spectacular recipe here for burger buns. So, go ahead and bake them if you got  the time. A burger with home baked buns has its own charm. We are not great fans of fries at home. So i just served my burger with some potato wafers.
