How to make a gluten free, vegan, veggie Burger

(This recipe makes 6 burgers)
 
You will need:
A food processor
Approx. 800g chickpeas (2x tins)
Approx. 300g broad beans (1x small tin)
A whole chopped onion
4 heaped tablespoons of rice and buckwheat flour (Gluten Free)
(you may need to add some more if the mixture is too wet)
A couple of splashes of vegetable oil
1heaped teaspoon of chilli powder 
 
 
Veggie Burger 1 Veggie Burger 2
Veggie Burger 3 Veggie Burger 4
 (I stole this picture from a previous veggie burger recipe I put together... But they look very similar so you get the picture lol).
 
What to do:
  1. Start by shallow frying the chopped onion in a little vegetable oil. (Use a large frying pan).
  2. Let the onions cool and add the broad beans and chick peas to the food processor.
  3. Then add 4 tablespoons of (gluten free) flour and the onions to the food processor and start mixing.
  4. Then add the chilli powder and mix.
  5. Once it is all mixed together and you have a moist dough, dust a clean surface with flour and empty the mixture onto it.
  6. Separate the mixture into 6 equal balls and shape your burgers.
  7. Heat a couple of splashes of vegetable oil in a large frying pan and place the burgers into it.
  8. Turn regularly and add more oil if the pan dries up.

 

Fry the burgers for 6-8 min and they are ready to eat. If you don’t want them straight away, let them cool and put them in freezer bags and place them in the freezer. When you want to eat them place them in a pre-heated oven at gas mark 5 for 10mins (make sure they are hot) and serve.

 Enjoy! :)
