Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Chickpeas
- 125 grams Fresh spinach
- 1 medium Red onion
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 teaspoons Ground cumin
- 2 teaspoons Curry powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 3 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 50 grams Breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 pieces Burger buns
- Optional toppings (lettuce, tomato slices, onion rings, sauce)
Instructions
Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop the red onion, garlic, and parsley. Add them to the bowl with the chickpeas.
Use a potato masher or fork to mash the chickpeas until they are mostly broken down but still have some texture.
Add the fresh spinach (chop it finely if the leaves are large), ground cumin, curry powder, paprika, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
Stir in the all-purpose flour and breadcrumbs. Mix until the mixture holds together when pressed. If it's too wet, add more breadcrumbs one tablespoon at a time.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook for 4–5 minutes on each side until golden brown and heated through.
Toast the burger buns in the oven or a toaster if desired.
Assemble the burgers by placing the patties on the buns and adding your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato slices, onion rings, or sauce.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Cumin Curried Chickpea Spinach Burgers!
