Chickpea Delish Patties


I have never been much of a fan of 'patties', but today I have changed my mind. These patties are so tasty with a BANG of lemon and herb flavour and did I mention GLUTEN FREE?! These didn't even make it onto a sandwich or roll, as I enjoyed them as they were with my salad.

Make approximately 25 patties.

Ingredients:
3 cups cooked chickpeas
1/2 cup torn parsley leaves, packed
3/4 cup coriander, roughly chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
3-4 Tbs lemon juice
3 cloves garlic
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp coriander
1 tsp cumin
2 tsp celtic salt
1/2 cup besan/millet flour
1/2 cup besan millet flour with a little salt to coat your patties
Oil for frying
  • In a food processor combine the chickpeas, pasley, coriander, onion, lemon juice, garlic, turmeric, coriander, cumin and salt. Process until well combined, scraping down the sides of the processor bowl as needed. Add the 1/2 cup flour and process through until combined. You may place the mixture in the fridge for about 30 minutes or if the mixture if firm enough to handle you can proceed to the next step.
  • With moist hands, take spoonfuls of mixture (1-2 Tbs), roll it into a ball and coat with the flour, lightly pressing it down to form a shape of a patty.
  • Lightly oil a non-stick pan and let it heat up before cooking your patties. Cook each patty on each side for approximately 5 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Enjoy - and try not to eat them before they get to the table :o)
