1 15- to 16-ounce can garbanz beans (chickpeas), rinsed, drained
3 tablespoons minced red onion
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
2 1/2 tablespoons dry breadcrumbs

Puree remaining garbanzo beans, egg white, tahini and garlic in processor until almost smooth. Stir into mashed garbanzo bean mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Shape mixture into four 1/2-inch-thick patties. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)
