Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Frozen peas
- 1 cup Canned chickpeas (drained and rinsed)
- 0.5 cup Rolled oats
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley or cilantro (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable or olive oil (for frying)
- 4 Burger buns
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 4 Tomato slices
- 4 Red onion slices
- to taste Ketchup or desired condiments
Instructions
In a food processor, combine the frozen peas (no need to thaw), chickpeas, rolled oats, minced garlic, parsley or cilantro, cumin powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and olive oil. Pulse the mixture until it forms a slightly chunky paste, ensuring it holds together but still has some texture.
Scoop the mixture out of the food processor and divide it into four equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty that will fit your burger buns. If the mixture is too sticky, wet your hands slightly to make shaping easier.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of vegetable or olive oil. Once the oil is hot, place the patties in the skillet. Cook each side for about 4-5 minutes, or until the patties are golden brown and cooked through.
While the patties are cooking, prepare your burger buns by slicing them in half and toasting them lightly, if desired.
Assemble your burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by the pea burger patty. Add a slice of tomato, a slice of red onion, and any condiments of your choice such as ketchup, mustard, or mayonnaise.
Top with the other half of the toasted bun, secure with a toothpick if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy your Vegetarian Peapo Burger 5fix!
