    AuthorHannah

    Yields4 Servings
    Prep Time18 minsCook Time12 minsTotal Time30 mins
    Chickpea Patties
     1 medium carrot, cut into large pieces
     1 15oz (425g) can chickpeas
     2 cloves garlic
     2 teaspoon ground cumin
     1 teaspoon ground coriander
     ½ teaspoon sea salt
     1 flax egg (combine 1 tablespoon ground flax with 2.5 tablespoon water and let sit for 2 minutes)
     2 tablespoon chickpea flour*
     ¼ cup (7g) fresh parsley
    Vegan Tzatziki Sauce
     ½ cup (~112 g) plain dairy-free yogurt (I used Kite Hill greek yogurt)
     ½ cup (75g) shredded/diced cucumber
     ¼ cup (one small handful) fresh dill, finely chopped
     1 tablespoon fresh mint, finely chopped
     1 tablespoon lemon juice
     1 clove garlic, minced
     pinch each of salt and pepper
    1

    Place carrot in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Remove and put in a separate bowl.

    2

    Add the rest of the ingredients and pulse until combined. Do not over-process— the mixture should be evenly mixed but still rough.

    3

    Add in the grated carrot to the mixture and stir until well-combined. Adjust salt to taste.

    4

    Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Divide the mixture into patties and fry for 3-5 minutes on each side until golden.

    5

    To make tzatziki sauce, finely shred/grate cucumber and squeeze to remove most of the liquid. Place all ingredients in a small bowl and stir until combined. Let sit in the refrigerator for a few hours for the best flavor.

    6

    Serve chickpea patties with the sauce, lettuce, red onion, and tomato on burger buns of choice. Patties will store for up to four days in the refrigerator (they are great frozen and reheated too).

    Notes
    • *You can substitute all-purpose flour or oat flour, but I like using chickpea flour because it makes the patties crispier (and is also gluten-free).
