Ingredients
- 250 g Chickpeas ((canned))
- 30 g Oats ((fine flakes))
- 50 g Onion
- 3 g Garlic
- 75 g Bell Pepper ((red))
- 0.5 piece Cumin
- 7.5 g Parsley
- 10 g Olive Oil (Extra Virgin)
- 120 g Burger Buns ((whole grain))
- 50 g Tomatoes
- 600 g Sweet Potato ((as fries))
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (convection). Mix sweet potato fries with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them on a baking sheet. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, turning once, until crispy.
- For the burger patties, roughly mash the chickpeas in a bowl (do not puree, there should still be chunks).
- Add onion, garlic, red bell pepper, cumin, parsley, oats, 0.5 tablespoons of olive oil, 0.5 teaspoons of salt, and 0.25 teaspoons of pepper to the chickpeas and mix well until a moldable mixture forms. Add more oats if necessary.
- Shape the mixture into 2 patties.
- Heat the remaining olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the patties for about 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and heated through.
- Toast the burger buns briefly. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, cucumber slices, and chickpea patty. Serve with the sweet potato fries.
