Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 g canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
- 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 0.5 tsp paprika
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour (or chickpea flour for gluten-free)
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 3 tbsp olive oil (for frying)
Instructions
In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, onion, garlic, parsley, cumin, coriander, paprika, flour, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice.
Pulse the mixture until a coarse, sticky dough forms. Be careful not to over-process; you want the patties to have some texture.
Using your hands, divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a patty, about 2.5 inches in diameter. If the mixture is too sticky, lightly coat your hands with flour while shaping.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the patties in batches, taking care not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the cooked patties to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, in a burger bun, or in a wrap with fresh vegetables.
