- 1 tablespoon olive oil
 - 1 bunch green onions, sliced
 - 1 large carrot, shredded
 - 1 red bell pepper, diced
 - 1 bunch chopped fresh parsley
 - 2 (6 ounce) cans crabmeat, drained
 - 1 (14 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
 - 1 egg
 - 1 cup bread crumbs
 - 1/2 cup spicy mayonnaise
 - 1/2 cup canola oil
 
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook the green onions, carrot, red bell pepper, and parsley in the hot oil until the green onions are softened, about 10 minutes.
 - Combine the green onion mixture with the crabmeat and black beans in a large mixing bowl. Stir the egg, bread crumbs, and mayonnaise into the mixture until evenly mixed; divide into 12 approximately equal portions and shape into patties. Refrigerate the patties until set, about 1 hour.
