Almost Perfect Vegan Burger
The summer is here!...Well almost and this meal makes it feel that much closer. We were having our vegan friend over for board game night so we quickly combined chickpea burger recipes from Yummly and Oh She Glows, and came up with the patty you have before you. Although, this patty will not fill a hamburger craving, if you think of it as a whole new meal instead of a meat replacement, it's quite tasty! The only thing is, we have tried a couple of version of this, and the patties just can't stay together when we eat them. Our journey for a crumble free vegan patty continues but, in the meantime, here's what we used.
Ingredients
1 can chickpea, drained
1 medium carrot
1 small onion
2 cloves garlic
1 small zucchini
1 tsp curry powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp coriander
2 tbsp tahini or peanut butter
1 Chinese eggplant, cooked
1/2-1 cup panko (breadcrumbs)
Method
1. Preheat oven at 400 F.
2. In a food processor, mix everything but the panko.
3. In a medium to large bowl, combine the vegetable-chickpea mush with the bread crumbs. Start with about 1/2 cup of panko and, if need be, add the rest.
4. Form into patties, makes 4-6 depending on the size.
5. Place on baking sheet and cook for 20 minutes, or until they start to brown and are all warm on the inside.
Don't hesitate to use other kinds of vegetables in your patty, you can basically just use leftover vegetables that are about to go bad. For alternate methods of baking, check out the links from Yummly and Oh She Glows.
