      Black Bean Cakes
      2 cups cooked black beans
      2 tbs grated sweet or red onion
      1 tbs tomato paste
      ½ cup whole grain breadcrumbs
      1 jalapeno, chopped very fine
      1 clove garlic, chopped very fine
      ½ tsp ground cumin
      1 tbs chopped cilantro
      sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
      ¼ cup cornmeal
      olive oil for frying the patties
      Mash the black beans with a potato masher or in a food processor. Stir in the onion, tomato paste, breadcrumbs, jalapeno, garlic, cumin and cilantro and mix thoroughly. Season to taste.
      Using an ice cream scoop or 1/3 cup measure, form the mixture into 6 patties.

      Place the cornmeal on a plate or sheet of parchment. Gently dip each patty into the cornmeal and coat on both sides. Pour enough olive oil to coat the bottom of a skillet, and heat over medium high heat.

      Brown the bean cakes for 2-3 minutes on each side, turning carefully with a spatula. Drain on paper towels and serve. Makes 6 bean cakes
