Place in a large pan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 40 minutes, or until the beans become soft. Drain the beans and place in a blender along with the onion, carrots and egg. Season to taste then blend to a smooth paste. Shape the resultant mixture into balls then press into flat discs.
