Black Bean Burgers v2

I came across an episode of The Vegan Zombie the other day for some Spicy Black Bean Burgers.  Having bought a 108oz can of black beans from Sam's Club decided I needed to use them. 

Not having all the ingredients The Vegan Zombie called for, I decided to "wing it" using his recipe as a base.

Ingredients:
¼-½c + 2tbsp oil (I used peanut)
1 large potato
2 cloves garlic, pressed
1½c Black Beans
1tsp thyme
1tsp rosemary
1tsp creole seasoning
1tsp fresh ground pepper
½ sage
½ salt

Directions:
Cube the potato.  Add to pan with spices and 2Tbsp oil and cook on medium heat for 5 minutes.

Next, add garlic and mix, cooking for another 10 minutes, tossing every few minutes. 

Add black beans and cook until soft.  Approx another 5 minutes and mash with a potato masher.

Remove from heat and place in a bowl until cool.  Once cooled, form into patties. 

Dredge in a little bit of flour.  Add oil to pan until the bottom is completely covered.  Add patties and
cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until it appears crisp.
