- 1 ½ cups
- Spring onions, finely diced

Method
- Preheat oven to 190oC and line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Place black beans into a large bowl and mash half of them. Add the sweet potato, 1 cup of the cooked rice, spring onion, flour and spices. Mix to combine. Adjust seasoning if needed.

- Place the burgers in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, then flip and bake for another 10-15 minutes.
