Como fazer Bean And Rice Patties In Pita With Yogurt Tahini Dressing

Cook 1 cup of brown rice according to package directions. Set aside to cool.
While rice cooks, mash 1 (15-ounce) can of beans (kidney, black, or pinto) with a fork. Leave some texture for a heartier patty.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, mashed beans, 1/2 cup finely chopped onion, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 1 tablespoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or more, to taste), 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
Mix well to combine all ingredients.
Form the mixture into 8-10 patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and heated through.
Meanwhile, whisk together 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons tahini, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 clove minced garlic, and a pinch of salt for the dressing.
Warm pita bread according to package directions.
Serve the bean and rice patties in warm pita bread, topped with the creamy yogurt-tahini dressing. Garnish with extra cilantro, if desired.
