Step 1

Cook the millet according to package directions. Fluff with a fork.

Step 2

While the millet is cooking, shred the onion and carrot. Set aside.

Step 3

Place the black beans in a large mixing bowl and smash with a potato masher or fork until no whole beans remain.

Step 4

Add the cooked millet and all other ingredients to the mashed beans and mix well to combine.

Step 5

Take about 1/3 cup of the mix and form it into a patty with your hands. Place on a plate and repeat with the remaining mixture.

Step 6

Heat 1-2 tablespoons of oil in a pan on the stove over medium-high heat. Once hot, place 2 to 4 patties in the pan, spaced evenly (depending on pan size - do not over crowd the pan).

Step 7

Cook 4 to 5 minutes on until browned crispy. Gently flip the patties over and cook on the second side until crispy on the outside and heated through, another 3 to 5 minutes. (Adjust heat as necessary while cooking....every stove is different. You want it hot enough to crisp up the outside, but not too hot that it burns before the patty is heated through.) Repeat with any remaining bean mixture.
