(from Chatelaine)
Okay, the proper title is ... w/ cucumber - and while we absolutely served it WITH cucumber, I didn't put it into the mix - your choice. I wouldn't say its the best veggie burger I've ever had, it was okay - nice and easy for weekday dinners, but I may try it again, with some different spices perhaps?
1/3 cup large-flake oats
1 cup chickpeas, drained
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 green onions, chopped
1 egg
2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp salt
1 packed cup lentils, drained
1/2 cup diced English cucumber
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
Whirl oats in a food processor until ground. Add chickpeas, garlic, onions, egg, chili powder, oregano and salt. Whirl, scraping down mixture, until smooth. T/S to a medium bowl. Stir in lentils, cucumber and parsley. Shape into four 3 ½” wide patties. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium. Spray pan with cooking spray. Cook 2 patties until golden and warmed through, 2 to 3 min per side. Repeat with remaining patties. Top with tahini sauce (1/4 cup tahini paste + 3 tbsp lemon juice) or roasted plum tomatoes (I didn't serve it with the tahini sauce, we had a salad of fresh tomatoes and cucumbers, and topped the burgers with some harissa sauce and tsatsiki!)
