Chickpea Burgers (recipe repost)

[Guest guest]

I made these at the weekend from a recipe in the group files. They turned out

really well so I thought I'd repost the recipe.

 

Chickpea Burgers (garbanzo burgers)

 

1 x 15 ounce can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), rinsed, drained

3 tablespoons minced red onion

3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

2 1/2 tablespoons dry breadcrumbs (or more)

1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 large egg white or egg replacer

1 tablespoon tahini

2 garlic cloves, peeled

 

Using fork, coarsely mash 3/4 cup garbanzo beans in medium bowl. Mix in onion

and next 3 ingredients. Puree remaining garbanzo beans, egg white/egg replacer,

tahini and garlic in processor or blender until almost smooth. Stir into mashed

garbanzo bean mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Shape mixture into four

1/2-inch-thick patties. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill.) Lightly

spray patties on both sides with nonstick spray. Place patties in skillet and

cook until golden brown and heated through, about three minutes per side.

 

I used egg replacer rather than egg white and chopped cilantro in place of dill.

I made mine into 8 mini patties and served with potato rosti, petits pois, fresh

tomato sauce and mango salsa - yum.
