Time 1h

Yield 6 burgers, 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup lentils (dry measure)
1 onion, diced
3 carrots, grated
3/4 cup whole grain flour (approx)
1 pinch sea salt
1 teaspoon coriander
1 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 pinch black pepper
1 -2 teaspoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Before you begin, the lentils must be fully cooked. Gently boil them in enough water to cover them by 2 inches, with NO salt. Lentils will take about 30 minutes to cook.
  • While they cook, dice the onion and grate the carrots.
  • Drain the cooked lentils and put them in a bowl with the carrots and onion. Mash them a bit, but not too much, and add enough flour to get them to the point where they will stick together. You may also need to add a bit of water. Season the mix with the spices, salt & pepper and stir them through well.
  • With your hands, form the lentil mix into burger shapes. Add a teaspoon of olive oil to a heated pan and lay the burgers inches Leave them for about 10 minutes on the first side, flip, and cook another 5-7 minutes. Put the burgers in an oven on low heat to keep them warm while you cook the second batch.

These burgers were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think I'll try making them again with less cayenne pepper next time.

These burgers were a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more moisture next time, maybe with some grated zucchini or sweet potato.
