Falafel Burger
Prep time is so long because you need to soak the chickpeas but everything else takes at most 20 minutes!
Equipment
- food processor
- frying pan
Ingredients
- 1 cup soaked chickpeas
- 1 red onion chopped
- 1-2 cloves of garlic
- 3/4 cup parsley fresh
- 2 tsp dried coriander
- 1 tsp dried cumin
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1-2 tbsp flour
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
Instructions
- Once the chickpeas have soaked (Chickpeas need to be soaked overnight). Drain the remaining water. I let mine dry for about 10 minutes. rub them between 2 paper towels to help get rid of any excess water.
- Add all ingredients to a food processor. Blend until finely ground BUT don’t blend into hummus.
- Chill in the fridge for an hour. (for best results)
- Fry on the stove. I used avocado oil. Depending on the stove one side should fry in 5-8 minutes with medium heat
- enjoy with your favorite bun and burger toppings!! I'm a mustard and mayo girl:)
- Enjoy.
Notes
If your patties are too wet. Add a little more flour to help them stick together!
I find that they fry much better once they have chilled for an hour. They aren't falling apart at this point.
I used dried ground spices from the store.
I have not tried this recipe with canned chickpea if you try please comment on how it went!!
