Could I use plain bread crumbs instead of panko?

I loved this burger. It was nutty and flavoursome. Tastes like the gourmet veggie burgers in store but better because I got to make them thicker. I had to tweak it a fair bit though in Australia. Instead of Adobo saice I had 1:1 apple cider vinegar and tomato paste. Instead of tamari I used soy sauce (saltier). No Chipotle as my children wouldn’t eat it. I really liked the idea to add balsamic vinegsf to.the patty.
I cooked the black beans in water for over an hour then blended them so there was still some texture. I don’t like the patties to be like mashed potatoes but my husband hated the texture. I suppose I could do this with canned black beans to make him a mashed version or blend the black beans into breadcrumbs so they were less ‘bitsy’. Surely so much nicer with the texture though. However, some mashed beans would have helped to bind them as I had no egg. Instead of an egg I used 3 Tb tahini paste and then I shaped patties by hand. They held together very well. Served with Mayo, tomato sauce (Australian), tomato slices, mushrooms, Pineapple, corn and fresh coriander. So delicious.

We used 3 huge Chipotle Peppers, no balsamic instead used Black Vinegar and lots of cumin. Mixed Mayo with some adobo sauce, lime and pepper for a slurry topping. Absolutely delicious!
