Method
- Place the kidney beans, onion, garlic, coriander, cumin and jalapeno chilli in a food processor and pulse until blended but still coarse. Transfer to a large bowl, add the oats, egg and capsicum and mix together well.
- Divide the mixture into 6 portions and mould each portion into a patty shape using your hands. Roll each patty in the flour and shake off the excess. Heat the oil in a non-stick frypan. Cook the patties in batches over medium heat for 4 minutes each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Mix together the salsa ingredients. Place each patty on a toasted pita bread, add a little shredded lettuce and spoon the tomato salsa over the top.
