Black Bean Croquettes
adapted from Vegan Planet by Robin Robertson, p 279

1 1/2 cups cooked or 15 oz can black beans, drained
1 large all-purpose potato, peeled, diced, cooked in water until tender, and drained
1/4 cup grated onion
1/2 c grated carrots
2 Tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup olive oil

1. Place the beans, potato, onion, carrots, parsley, salt and pepper in a food processor and process until well blended. Divide the mixture into 4 equal mounds and shape into patties OR use a tablespoon to make smaller patties. Coat each evenly with the bread crumbs and set on a baking sheet, flattening the bottoms. Moisten fingers with oil and apply a light film on each.
2. Bake in preheated oven 20-25 minutes or skip moistening with oil and cook in oil in skillet until brown, about 5 minutes.
