In a small-pot, cook the quinoa with water and add salt to taste. Bring a boil, cover and simmer for 14 minutes. Uncover and fluff with a fork.
In a big bowl, add the rinsed black beans and mash the bean completely using a fork or potato masher.
Add the cooked quinoa into the black beans, add the tomato paste, all of the seasoning and the breadcrumbs. Form 4-patties.
Heat olive oil in a grill-pan, set the quinoa burgers at the pan and fry over moderate heat for 4 minutes each side.
