I know this blog is overwhelmed with tex-mex recipes, but they are my favorite!! Anything I can garnish with sour cream and avocados are delicious. This one was very good. It had the texture of a crabcake, but with no meat and a spicy kick. I loved them! Recipe from familyfun website.
Ingredients:
2 slices firm sandwich bread (I let mine sit on the counter for a couple of hours to dry out)
several leaves of italian parsley, chopped (I used cilantro)
1/2 cup plain bread crumbs, and a little extra for coating
3/4 cup grated cheese (cheddar or monterey jack)
1 1/2 Tbsp canola oil
3/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped green or red bell pepper
1/2 cup frozen corn kernels
1 clove of garlic, minced
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/3 cup canned pumpkin
1/3 cup ricotta
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
2 Tbsp butter
In mixing bowl combine crumbled bread, bread, crumbs, parsley (or cilantro), and grated cheese. Set aside. Heat oil in skillet and saute onion, pepper, and corn for about 7 minutes or until soft. Add garlic, chili powder, and cumin and cook another minute. Remove from heat and add to bread mixture. In large bowl combine egg, ricotta, and pumpkin. Add bread crumb mixture, salt, and pepper and gently combine. Flour hands and form 3/4 inch patties (about 1/3 cup), dredge in bread crumbs, and set aside for about 1 1/2 hours. I was able to make about 8 patties. Melt butter in skillet and cook patties for about 4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
