Pulsin

These chickpea burgers make a great barbecue treat. I love spicing mine up with chilies, but if you are catering for children or those with less spicy palates, you may simply want to omit these.

Prep time: 25 minutes

Heaping 3/4 cup rolled instant oats (gluten-free if required)
1 ½ red chilies, deseeded (or ¾ tsp dried chili flakes)
1 red pepper, roughly sliced into chunks
1 medium red onion, roughly sliced into chunks
1 ½ tbsp tamari or soy sauce
1 tbsp tomato puree
2 tbsp ground flaxseed
1/3 cup sundried tomatoes, drained
¼ tsp salt and black pepper to taste
1 x 15 oz. can chickpeas, drained, washed, and rinsed
2-3 plump garlic cloves
1 small carrot, peeled and roughly sliced
1/4 cup fresh coriander/cilantro (or parsley if preferred)
1 ½ tsp dried mixed herbs
3 tbsp protein powder (Soy or pea)
2 tbsp ground chia seed
1 tbsp sundried tomato paste
VARIATIONS
Include 4 tbsp of goji berries for a nutrient boost
Spice it up! Curried chickpea burgers
Add 1 tsp of ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1tsp, ½ tsp turmeric
Serve burgers with minty yogurt
Try with different pulses. Black beans and cannellini beans also work well.

In a food processor or blender, mix together the oats and chickpeas. Pour contents into a large bowl.
In the same food processor or blender (no need to wash), add the remaining ingredients and blend. Pour into the bowl containing the oats – chickpea mixture. Mix well.
Using your hands, mold the mixture into 5-6 large patties.
Chill for 20 minutes or overnight to firm up.
Pan fry in a little coconut oil for 7-8 mins, or grill or barbecue for 10-12 mins, turning halfway through to cook both sides.
Serve. I love serving mine with guacamole and lots of fresh salad.
