As usual, missing several of the ingredients, and wanted to make it not too spicy.

Used 1/2 of a small green pepper with the scallions

Prefer not to use much cumin, so I combined
1 tsp coriander
<1 tsp cocoa chili
<1 tsp chipotle chili

Didn't use sour cream, although it probably would have been good.
Used a squeeze of lime on it, and served with pickled ginger - my favorite! and mustard,
over a bed of spinach and tomatoes.

Good vegetarian dinner - one egg for 8 patties.

Outside crisps in the broiler, but inside is moist.  Used less time than per instructions.

Directions

1. Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil.

2. Make sauce: Mix together sour cream, jalapeño pepper, lime juice, and salt in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate.

4. Transfer green onion mixture to a large bowl. Stir in black beans; mash with a fork. Season with salt and pepper. Mix in sweet potato, bread crumbs, and beaten egg until well combined. Divide mixture into 8 balls, flatten into patties, and place on the prepared baking sheet.
