Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Chickpeas, cooked and drained
- 0.5 cup Quinoa, cooked
- 0.5 cup Rolled oats, ground into flour
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Cumin, ground
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Flaxseed meal
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the flaxseed meal and water. Let sit for 5 minutes to form a flax egg, which will serve as a binder.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the cooked chickpeas with a fork or a potato masher until mostly smooth with a few lumps for texture.
Add the cooked quinoa, oat flour, red onion, minced garlic, soy sauce, tomato paste, cumin, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt to the mashed chickpeas.
Stir in the flax egg and mix until all ingredients are well combined. The mixture should be cohesive and hold together when pressed.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and form each portion into a burger patty approximately 3/4 inch thick.
Heat a grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Add olive oil to the grill or pan to prevent sticking.
Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until a nice char is formed and the patties are heated through.
Remove from the grill and let the patties rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve in a bun or lettuce wrap with your favorite vegan toppings such as avocado, lettuce, tomato, and vegan mayo.
