Black Bean Pita Sandwich 🥙 Quick & Easy Vegan Sandwich Recipe using Pita Bread (Delicious!)

- Black beans are found in cuisine around the world from India to Spain, to Latin America, and beyond.
➡️ I’ll be using this protein-rich ingredient to make stuffed pitas with a flavour that is somewhat reminiscent of Mexican black beans.
Let’s step into the kitchen and get started!
I’ll start by caramelizing the white onion, and adding ginger and garlic before I mix in the cooked beans and seasoning.
➡️ It takes time to get the onions just right, but this is a great excuse to focus on one thing and let your worries slip away as the aroma fills your kitchen.
In the end, you’ll also have great filling for your pita bread and a guilt-free vegan meal!
💬 What are some traditional recipes from your culture that use black beans? Let me know in the comments below!

▶️ INGREDIENT LIST:
1 can (540ml) of cooked black beans - 2 cups (340g) drained black beans(unsalted preferably)
3 to 4 tablespoons cooking oil (I have used olive oil)
2 cup Onion (275g) finely chopped (1 large onion 350g by weight with skin on)
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic (4 - 5 garlic cloves)
1 tablespoon finely chopped ginger (1/2 inch ginger)
Salt to taste ( I have added 1/2 + 1/4 teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt because I am using unsalted beans, if you are using the salted kind adjust the quantity accordingly)
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (OPTIONAL)
1/4 cup Water (add a bit more water if you think the beans are too dry, use your judgement)
Lemon juice to taste ( I have added 1+1/2 tablespoon on lemon juice, personally I like it slightly sour but you do you)
Whole wheat pita (medium size)
▶️ METHOD:
Add oil to a heated pan. Add the onion and salt and cook on medium-high until the onions start to caramelize. It’s important that you add salt at this point, this will help the onion to release the water and cook faster, it will take about 5 to 6 minutes approximately.
Once the onion starts to caramelize, reduce the heat to medium-low, now add the finely chopped ginger and garlic. Cook until the onions are golden brown in colour it will take about 3 to 4 minutes. Cooking in medium- low heat will help the onions to cook more evenly without burning it.
Once the onion looks golden brown right away add the cooked black beans and mix well. Add paprika, ground cumin, cayenne and mix thoroughly. Now increase the heat to medium-high and fry the beans until they are little crispy, for about 1 to 2 minutes. Add the water and mix again. Adding a tiny bit of water will keep the beans moist. Now turn off the heat. Add lemon juice, mix and then mash the beans with a potato masher.
Cover and set it aside to slightly cool down. It’s important that you cover the lid, this will prevent the beans from drying out. (If you think the beans looks/tastes dry, add a tiny bit of olive oil).
Now cut the pita in half and fill the pita pockets with the bean mix (about 3 to 4 tablespoons each). Brush one side of the pita with oil and then place it on a heated pan, grill on medium to medium-high heat for about a minute. Brush the other side with oil and flip and grill for another minute. Serve hot with your favourite dip.
▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:
- It's really important to take the time to cook the onions to golden brown that's were all the flavour comes from for this dish
- Every stove is different to the cooking time and heat may vary so adjust accordingly
- Make sure not to over do the quantity of ginger otherwise the filling may get bitter

This non vegan person made her first bean sandwich and dang, it was good. I m going to make it again for my Vegan daughter in law. So I 've made your breakfast cookies and this. Next the energy bar, I even bought my first Goji berries. Keep inspiring.
Thank you! so glad you liked it :)
you are so kind to make this for your vegan daughter-in-law. My inlaws would never do this for me, they just think I"m weird for not eating meat!!
@@TJ-kz1ul I guess they're on a learning curve. It's a challenge to forgive unkindness esp when there is no reason. But you could try making something tasty like these and not make a big deal about it and they may try and like it.🤷♀️
Awww so sweet :')
I just made this exactly as the video and it was amazing and so delicious ! The nice thing about this recipe is people can customize it anyway they want. I used these gf wraps from Costco , crisped them up on the frying pan and slathered avocado and vegan sour cream on the wrap, then filled with the delicious beans and topped it with cilantro and squeeze of lime , tasted amazing , thank you 🙏
Thank you! So awesome to hear that :)
My daughter and I LOVE black beans, and this looks absolutely delicious!! I just happen to have all the ingredients...I think I'll surprise her with these sandwiches and a salad for dinner tonight. 😋
Thanks! Let me know how it goes :)
@@FoodImpromptu I made the pitas for dinner last night. They were delicious!!! We weren't even done eating, and my daughter was asking if I would make them again on the weekend. Definitely a success, and a new favourite. 😋❤️
@@Terri_MacKay - thank you for trying this recipe. So glad you liked it :)

I absolutely loved this video and how you did it. No incessant talking, no shameless begging to “subscribe” and it was totally classy and well done. The bonus was the beautiful piano playing; whoever that was, take a bow because I loved loved loved it. You have a new subscriber from Vancouver. Thank you 🙏 do you have a website ?
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed the video. I don’t have a website yet but working on it :)
I'm totally with you Alex. I adored the "no talking", simple straightforward recipe, prep & cooking with the lovely background music and subtle kitchen cooking sounds. Regrettably, she will become a victim of her success; with more views and subscriptions the ads, endorsements and sponsorships will creep in and so will the incessant chatter to accompany them 😵. Let's enjoy her lovely, classy format while we can 😁💞👍.
Thank you for sharing!
Can't go wrong with this!
Very nice and healthy recipie😊👍
This is awesome! Love the piano music too!
I'm definitely making these!!

Big Like from me! 👍❤️This is a lovely recipe, thank you for sharing. Best wishes, Reeta's Soul Food
Very nice. I need to diversify my black bean recipes and this one will serve well. Just picked up the pita bread, as I have everything else on hand. A little habanero hot sauce will serve these well, for those that like a little heat.
The music is very well chosen.
Sounds good. Would love to hear how it goes :)
@@FoodImpromptu They were outstanding. I stuffed fresh onion inside before I seared them and spread lightly cooked spinach across the top before drizzling just a little El Yucateco Caribbean hot sauce on every other bite. Also roasted a mild jalapeno and ate that along with it.
My non-vegan company thoroughly enjoyed them. Gone in 60 seconds :-)
@@MrZayne8 So awesome to hear that! Glad you liked it 😊
I will make this tonight! Thanks for all your amazing vegan recipe inspirations :)
Thank you! Let me know how it goes :)
@@FoodImpromptu It was amazing! My husband loved it too... now I am going to make some more for my lunch tomorrow! SO glad I found your channel :D

Thank you! Glad you liked it :)
Yeeees
Nice video, I'm also a chef and love making cooking videos, you did a great job! 😋😋😋😋
Ooh la la! Mom makes the same using minced meat. Very tasty! 😋👌🏻
I'm not vegan, but I tried this and my family loved it. Will definitely be trying some more vegan recipes. Thanks for this.
So awesome to hear that! Glad you liked 😊
I tried and love it. My son also love it as well. I put it on tortilla. 😋
So awesome to hear that! Glad you liked it 😊
This would also be good with lime in option for the lemon, going to make this today as tacos, YUM
Sounds good! Let me know how it goes :)
Looks amazing. Need to try it. Wish I could find pita that looks like that though.
Thanks! Let me know how it goes :)
Looks good. Not vegan, but love beans. Thank you.
🔥
This recipe looks so good. I love that you used 2 cups of onions. I’m not a fan of the taste of ginger unless it’s pickled but I will try it again with your recipe.
Thank you for this video.
Melissa 🌼
For a subtle flavour you could always cut the quantity of ginger in half. Let me know how it goes :)
Do you have any recipes for a black bean burger? Love your videos. So calming and delightful.
Thanks! Yes, I have bean burger recipes, will add it to my to do list :)
❤
If anyone in Australia is looking for pita pockets like this you can now buy them in both Coles and Woolworths.
Going to make these today.
شكله لذيذ جدا
Ps
Love the healthy side salad as well!
👏👏👏
Pita bread and rajmah I would make it fresh !

Love your videos Lovely recipes without all the unesasary talking Thank you
So glad you enjoyed the video 😊
I'm becoming a really big fan of your videos. Can I add some sauteed mushrooms? Either way, this looks perfect.
Help! :-) Can I make this ahead of time for lunch for two todays? Thank you. Looks so YUMMY!
Sure you can, but just like any other sandwich it tastes better fresh. Let me know how it goes :)
👌🏻🍀💕
I'm gonna get a 3 is one waffle, panni and toastie maker. Looking for vegan filling before getting it. This is going on the list.
I like your recipe. I add most of the same spices to my black beans burrito. Anxious to try with Ginger. Also like your tip to brush pita bread and toast it. Really don't like the way pita pockets tear.😄
Thank you! :)
Looks yummy! I enjoy your recipes and videos, thank you for sharing them!
Thank you! So glad you are enjoying the videos :)
Thank you so much for such great recipes.
I would love to know what tipe of pan are you using? Thank you
Thank you! You can find the link for the pan in the description box.
Am vegan from India. Pls post more
Will do :)
this is so awesome ! beautiful peaceful video , can you share the name of the background music ..thanks ..Have a good day
Watching this while I'm waiting for my turkey to brown. I'm definitely making this.
Wow it’s so easy! But where can I find this kind of greek pita? I never saw this one ! In a specialized grocery may be 🤔 thanks to reply!
Is there any way to make this absolutely delicious looking masterpiece oil free?
Where did you purchase your blue spatula?
I have the ceramic pan.😊
I love black beans. Good for kidneys issues . Nice music.
What kind of non stick pan do you use? Is it healthy kind?
What is the brand, the company 's name so i can buy the skillet? Thank you.
I have added the link for the frying pan in the description box, you can find all the details there
This is a lovely simple recipe but it is not at all quick. Still, I will give it a try.
Thank you.🌸🌸🌸
I love this recipe.❤️
Can I use kidney beans in place of the black beans please? I don't think I've come across black beans at our local supermarket..
Kidney beans have a slightly slimy texture so the end taste will be different but will still be good. Let me know how it goes :)
Rise the beans twice to avoid the " slime" lol.
Yes, but black beans are SO good! It would be worth your time to find some black beans; look in the Latin/Mex food isle @ your market. They surely must be there! Or look at a different market. You can also use fresh home cooked black beans ( soak dried beams overnight in water). It's much better cooking your own! Good luck. Liz
What would the macros on this be? or atleast protein count?
my black beans are really black ;)) i would say these are kidneys but at the and it does not make any difference ;) super recipe!
Thanks! Glad you liked the recipe. These are black beans and if you notice I opened a can in the video itself :)
@@FoodImpromptu yes I saw it ;)) strangly enough the black beans in berlin are really black ;)) but dont mind as I wrote .
I'm allergic to oil. Have you tried without? Maybe I will try veggie broth.
What other beans can we use instead of blackbeans?
💖🎶
Ymmm....Food Porn at its best, SCRUMPTIOUS Vittles here, presented in such a fine First Class, 5 Star video, the musical ambience light as to not overwhelm the viewer yet the high quality of the video.....IMPECCABLE! And informative as well, up to this moment I had no idea that there existed a Creamy Non-oil Cauliflower Mayo,.....Cauliflower, a veggie belonging to the Brassica family?!! Thanks Food Impromptu for sharing,liked and like we say here in Mexico before eating, Buen Provecho! :D
Thank you for your kind words! :)
Can you please show how you shoot your videos 🙏
Onions become brown faster when you add a pinch of sugar. Tomatoes cook faster when salt is added...
This is so delicious that I have it often weekly but without all that unnecessary extra oil.
I'm developing quite the TH-cam crush on you my friend, I must say!
😊
