These burgers are delicious and easy to make :) lovely served with chips or a salad :)

1 can of chickpeas

1 diced onion

1 diced bell pepper (any colour)

1 teaspoon 3G paste

ground cumin

ground coriander

 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Whiz up the bread in a blender to make fine bread crumbs

and set aside in a bowl.

Wash the chickpeas and add to the blender and pulse till broken but not pureed and add to the bowl.

add the 3G paste to the mixture in the bowl

in a small bowl add the egg, cumin and coriander powder, salt and cayenne pepper and whisk it with a fork.

Add the egg mix to the mixture and stir well until it's mixed thoroughly.

Now add the the bread crumbs a little at a time until it all comes together and is easy to make the patties. If the mixture is still too soft form patties you may need to make more bread crumbs. 

Form round patties and place on a lightly oiled baking tray.

Pop in the oven on 190 for 10 minutes on each side ( 20 mins all together.)

Serve in a bun with whatever you like in your burger.
