Mushroom & Butter Bean Patties
Here's a lovely way to get your mushrooms and beans in. Mushrooms are very nutritious, and so are beans, so there you have it, power patties 🙂 They freeze well too. You can make them spicier by adding more chilli, of course!
These amounts make about 9 patties, which is a nice serve for 2 persons, with a salad on the side.

Recipe type: patties
Serves: 2 persons
Prep time:
Total time:
You need
- 1 can of butter beans (Lima beans)
- 5 medium mushrooms
- 1 large clove of elephant garlic (about 20gr)
- 50gr red onion
- 4 tbsp (gluten free) bread crumbs and more for coating
- juice and zest of half a lemon
- ½ tsp Himalayan rock salt
- 1 small chilli, finely chopped (if you like it hot, leave the seeds in)
- about 8 mint leaves, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp tahini
- 2-4 tbsp of chickpea flour (or another flour) - depending on how moist the mixture is
- a little bit of coconut oil for cooking (as much as you can get away with - it depends on your the type of pan you use)
I served it with this dip:
- ¼ cup of coconut yoghurt
- ¼ tsp curry powder or smoked paprika or any other flavour you fancy
- a pinch of salt
- 1 clove of garlic
To do
- mash the beans quite fine in a bowl with a fork, adding in the bread crumbs, lemon juice & zest, salt, chilli, chopped mint and minced garlic
- in your food processor, blend the mushrooms plus the chopped onions to a thick, medium fine paste
- add the paste to the bean mash, add tahini and mix with a spoon
- add flour; 2-4 table spoons, so the mixture doesn't stick to your hands - that's the only purpose of the flour so if you don't need it, you can omit it
- place in fridge for 20 minutes or longer, then place bread crumbs in a shallow bowl, form balls out of the bean mixture and coat them in bread crumbs, gently pressing them into patties
- when all done, heat some oil in a skillet and cook the patties until brown, about 8 minutes on each side
- for the dressing, mix the ¼ cup coconut yoghurt with 1 clove of garlic, ¼ tsp curry powder, a pinch of salt, and that's it.
