Preparation
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with 2 turns of the pan of EVOO. Add the andouille and cook until lightly browned, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the browned andouille to a mixing bowl and reserve rendered andouille fat in the skillet.
In a food processor add the beans, egg, flour, salt and pepper. Pulse until just combined -- you don't want it completely smooth.
In the mixing bowl with the andouille, combine the bean mixture with the rice, thyme, paprika, cayenne, cumin and the leftover rice. Form into 4 equal size patties. Heat the skillet with the andouille fat in it over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook on each side for 7-8 minutes, until brown and heated through.
While the patties are cooking up, make the remoulade sauce: In a small bowl mix together the mustard, celery, mayo, parsley, lemon juice and zest.
Run your knife through the two hearts of romaine until shredded. Lay it on the plates as a bed for your patties.
To serve, divide the patties among the plates with the bed of romaine and drizzle with some of the remoulade sauce.
