Veggie burgers would not be my first pick on a menu or something to make. The ingredients sound like a good blend for a veggie burger. Ingredients:
1 cup plain yogurt |
2 minced garlic cloves |
1/2 teaspoon curry powder |
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper |
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas |
1/3 cup chopped dill |
1/2 cup minced shallot |
2 tablespoons plain breadcrumbs |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
2 tablespoons tahini |
1/4 teaspoon cumin |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. In small bowl yogurt, garlic and curry and ground red pepper, set aside. 2. Rinse and drain chickpeas; place half the chickpeas in a bowl and use a fork to mash together with chopped dill, shallots, bread crumbs and lemon juice. 3. Place the remaining chickpeas in a food processor with tahini, cumin, salt and pepper and process until smooth; add to the mashed chickpeas. Stir together and form into 4 patties. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high eat; add burgers and cook until well browned, 10 minutes. 4. Serve in pitas with yogurt sauce and tomato sauce. |
