- Toast the whole-wheat bread slices before blending to make breadcrumbs for a better texture.
- Roast the cashews slightly before adding them to enhance their flavor.
- Drain and rinse the canned lentils thoroughly to remove excess sodium and improve the patty consistency.
- If the mixture feels too wet, add more breadcrumbs to achieve the desired consistency.
- Use an ice cream scoop to ensure uniform patty sizes for even cooking.
- Chill the patties in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before cooking to help them hold their shape.
- Cook the patties on medium heat to ensure they cook through without burning the outside.
- For a spicier kick, add some finely chopped jalapeño or a dash of hot sauce to the mixture.
