Quinoa and borlotti burgers

Having struggled with the idea of including a veggie burger, mainly due to its old-school vegetarian connotations, this recipe won me over. Quinoa is usually cooked until just tender so it retains a little bite, but here the grain is cooked for slightly longer so it binds readily into a patty with the borlotti beans. The mixture makes four good-size burgers, but you could stretch it to make six, if need be.
