Chickpeas veggie burger patties - healthy meat-free alternative

                Recipe link on my blog: Chickpeas veggie burger patties
 
This recipe is perfect for camping trips because it doesn’t spoil fast and it is also very filling. I don’t normally fry veggies but I had to finish this dish super-fast and I chose the easy but not-so-healthy path. Anyway, even though I fried the burgers I used a small amount of oil and I also fried them for a very short time. The next time I will make veggie burgers I will try to grill them and see if it works just as well.

  Ingredients:

  • 250g canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • a bunch of dill
  • a bunch of parsley
  • 1 big onion
  • ½ tsp  fine-grain sea salt
  • ½ tsp ground pepper
  • ½ tsp ground coriander
  • 100g whole wheat flour
  • ⅓ cup sunflower seed oil
  • soy sauce – as much as you want

Add the chickpeas, dill, onion – chopped in four , parsley, salt, pepper and coriander, in your food processor. Puree all ingredients together until you get a thick, sticky consistency.

Put the flour in a plate.

Use your hands and form the patties. Put the patties in the flour plate and flip them so the flour sticks on both sides.

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium low, add 3-4 patties, cover and cook for about 4 minutes on each side, until golden.

Repeat the procedure until you finish all burgers.

I ate the patties with  green lettuce salad and soy sauce, but you can add the patties, salad leaves, a couple of tomato slices between two buns and enjoy a great veggie burger.
