Created By: Dories Recipe Box
Difficutly: very easy
Time: 25 Min
Portion: 4 servings
Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 3/4 cup diced fresh mushrooms
  • 3 cloves garlic, shopped
  • 1 (15.5 oz) can garbanzo beans, with liquid
  • 1 1/2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 1/2 tsps minced fresh parsley
  • 1 1/2 tbsp curry powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 2 egg whites
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil, or as needed

Directions:

Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.  Add green onions and mushrooms, and fry until tender, stirring frequently.  Combine the garbanzo beans with liquid and garlic in the container of a blender and blend until smooth.  Transfer to a medium bowl.  Stir in the mushrooms and onions.  Mix in the cilantro, parsley, curry powder and cumin.  Add the bread crumbs and egg whites and mix until thoroughly blended.  You can let the mixture sit in the refrigerator to blend flavors at this point or go on to frying.

Heat enough oil to cover the bottom of a large skillet over medium heat.  Form the bean mixture into 4 balls and flatten into patties.  Place the burgers in the hot skillet and dry for about 5 minutes on each side until nicely browned.
