Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
In a small pot, bring 200 ml of bottled water to a boil, add rinsed quinoa, cover with a lid, and let it cook on low heat. Cook until done for about 10-15 minutes, until all the liquid is absorbed.
Step 2
Grate the carrot in a food processor, add quinoa, beans, breadcrumbs, egg, cumin, a teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of ground black pepper. Mix well using the processor, but do not blend to a smooth consistency - the mixture should retain some texture. Wet your hands to prevent sticking and form 4 patties from the mixture.
Step 3
In a non-stick skillet, heat the oil and fry the burgers until golden brown, about 10 minutes on each side.
Step 4
In a bowl, combine yogurt, finely chopped mint, and lemon juice, and season with pepper.
Step 5
Serve the burgers in buns with mint yogurt sauce and thin slices of fresh cucumber.
