Been piling up recipes so thought it was time to get back to sharing some :) Had fancied a veggie burger for ages but the last few I have looked at in the shops have had wheat in so thought I'd just knock some up myself!
For 6 large patties I used:
1 can of Chickpeas
100g Quinoa
1 Carrot
1 Courgette
1/2 Red onion
Free from flour for dusting
Oil of choice for cooking
First step was to drain the chickpeas and then mash them up with a fork
Then grated up a carrot, a courgette and chopped up the onion
Put the Quinoa on to boil with some salt and seasoning
And stir fried the veg for about 8 mins until soft
I then stirred the quinoa into the mashed chickpeas, and stirred in the softened veg before splitting the mixture into 6 and having put some flour on my hands formed them into burger shapes
I wasn't sure whether they would be better baked or fried in the pan so I tested one of both! Fried one for about 3 mins on either side in a hot pan with a little oil and the other I baked at 200 for 20 mins
The one on the left was the fried one which predictably came out a nicer colour and a little crispier but I liked the crust that formed on the baked one with the soft middle so I would happily recommend either!
