Ingredients:

Serving

2 (15 oz) cans white beans, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup vegetable broth
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
3 tbsp cilantro leaves, minced
1 small jalapeno chile, stemmed, seeded, and minced
2 tsp chili powder
1/4 cup cornmeal (or more )
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

Place the beans, broth, and lime juice in a large bowl. Use a potato masher to mash the mixture into a course puree. Stir in the cilantro, chile, chili powder, and salt and pepper to taste.
Stir in 1/4 cup cornmeal. If the mixture is too sticky to handle, stir in more cornmeal until you can shape the mixture with your hands.
Shape the mixture into eight 3-inch cakes.
Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the bean cakes and cook until nicely browned, about 4 minutes. Carefully turn the cakes and drizzle the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil around the edges of the pan. Continue cooking until the bean cakes are nicely browned on the se4cond side, about 3 minutes. Serve immediately.
