1/4 tsp. black pepper

Instructions
Peel potato, chop and place in small pot filled with water. Cover and cook on high heat for 10-15 minutes until potato is tender. Rinse the potato under cold water, and let the potato cool down a few minutes. Mash or grate the potato.
Grate the red onion, press to remove the excess liquid through a sieve, and add to the mashed potato. Mix well.
Add the Beyond Beef to the red onion/potato mixture. Combine by hand.
Add the flaxseed, chickpea flour, salt, pepper, turmeric, garlic powder, chopped cilantro, and combine by hand until well blended.
Refrigerate 30 minutes.
Shape the mixture into small patties (not too thick or thin – about 10 patties).
Add 2 Tbsp oil to a pan on medium heat. Cook the patties on each side for 4 to 5 minutes until cooked. Add more oil as needed.
Drain any excess oil on a paper towel before serving.
