- Remove from the heat and transfer mixture to a food processor with the beetroot, egg, breadcrumbs. Season to taste.
- Process until mixture is well combined, you want it smooth but still relatively chunky.
- Add in the remaining black beans and process until combined, still leaving it quite chunky so you can partially see the black beans.
