Chef's Notes

Cooks best in non-stick skillet or on a flat top. You can grill it but it is recommended to grill on a mat or alluminium foil sprayed with non-stick spray. These burgers are a delicious vegan alternative, however, pay attention to what black bean sauce you use as some are made with seafood product.
