Ingredients

  • 1 c whole wheat flour
  • 3/4 c hot water
  • juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 2 t ground cumin
  • 1 1/2 t salt
  • 15-oz can chickpeas, rinsed and drained well
  • 4 scallions, chopped
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 1 habanero or jalapeno, minced
  • 3 garlic cloves , minced
  • 2 T chopped cilantro leaves
  • 3 T olive oil

Instructions

In a large bowl, add flour, water, lemon juice, cumin and salt. Stir until well combined. Add in chickpeas, scallions, pepper, habanero, garlic and cilantro. Stir well.

In a large saucepan, heat olive oil, over medium heat. With your hands, form the chickpea mixture into 8 patties, about 1/2” thick (the patties may be quite wet, but will stay together when cooked). Place 4 patties in the pan, and cook 4-5 minutes, until the bottoms begin to brown. With a spatula, flip patties, and cook 4-5 minutes on the other side, until that side begins to brown. Transfer to a plate, or cook for an additional minute on each side, until desired doneness. Repeat with the remaining 4 patties. Serve with sour cream, salsa, or chopped avocado.
