Ingredients

• 400 g chickpeas
• 50 g oats
• 1 medium carrot
• 0.5 red bell pepper
• 0.5 red onion
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp ground coriander
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 4 whole wheat burger buns
• 4 lettuce leaves
• 1 sliced tomato
• 1 sliced avocado

Directions

Step 1

Drain and rinse the chickpeas thoroughly. In a food processor, blend the chickpeas until they resemble a coarse paste.

Step 2

Peel and grate the carrot. Finely chop the red bell pepper, red onion, and garlic.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the processed chickpeas, grated carrot, chopped pepper, onion, and garlic.

Step 4

Add oats, ground cumin, ground coriander, smoked paprika, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the mixture.

Step 5

Mix everything together until well combined. The mixture should hold together when pressed; if it's too dry, add a little water.

Step 6

Shape the mixture into four equal-sized patties, ensuring they are compact to prevent breaking during cooking.

Step 7

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with additional olive oil.

Step 8

Cook the patties for about 5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Toast whole wheat burger buns lightly on the skillet if desired.

Step 10

Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a chickpea patty.

Step 11

Top with sliced tomato, avocado, and the other half of the bun.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy your sugar-free delicious veg burger.
