Chickpea and Lentil Patties are a delicious and nutritious vegetarian option that are packed with protein and fiber. These patties are seasoned with aromatic spices like turmeric and cumin and are bound together with flour, eggs, and sunflower seeds. They are perfect for a main dish, burger alternative, or even as a hearty snack.
- Make sure to drain and rinse the chickpeas and lentils well to remove any excess liquid and sodium.
- For a finer texture, you can mash the chickpeas and lentils slightly with a fork or blend them in a food processor before mixing with other ingredients.
- Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to 1 hour before frying. This helps the patties hold together better while cooking.
- You can use additional spices or herbs such as coriander, parsley, or cilantro to enhance the flavor of the patties.
- These patties can also be baked as a healthier alternative; bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through for even browning.
- Serve the patties with a side of fresh salad, yogurt dip, or inside a whole wheat bun for a complete meal.
Chickpea and Lentil Patties are a versatile, healthy, and tasty addition to your kitchen repertoire.
