Chickpea and Pumpkin Burgers

Patties - Legume - -

INGREDIENTS

600 g / 1.3 lb chickpeas, soaked, well drained (use 2 x 300 g / 10.5 oz cans if no soaked chickpeas available)
400 g / 14 oz pumpkin, cooked, drained, mashed
1 onion, finely diced
100 g / 3.5 oz red capsicum, seeded, finely diced
1 T tahini
2 t finely chopped fresh ginger
1 t coriander
2 t cummin
1 t crushed garlic
1/2 cup chopped chives

METHOD

Place chickpeas in a food processor and process until they resemble large breadcrumbs (avoid overprocessing so you can enjoy the taste and crunch). Place processed chickpeas in a bowl with vegetables, egg white and herbs. Mix well, then work the mixture together with your hands until it begins to stick together. Shape into burgers and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cooking.

Lightly oil a frying pan and heat until very hot, cook burgers on both sides until brown.
