Chickpea Burgers

  • Number of Servings: 6
Ingredients
From https://www.phoebebites.com/2010/02/middle-eastern-chickpea-sliders/ * Red potato, 1 large (about 8 ounces), peeled and diced in medium cubes * Olive oil, 3 tablespoons, divided * Minced garlic, 1 teaspoon * Chickpeas, 1 can (15.5 ounces), drained and rinsed * Parsley, 1 tablespoon chopped * Salt, 1/2 teaspoon * Lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon * Smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon * Pepper, 1/4 teaspoon * Egg whites, 1 large, lightly beaten
Directions
Place potato in a saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until very tender, about 20 minutes. Drain. Cool slightly. Place in a medium bowl. Add one tablespoon of oil and garlic to bowl; mash potato mixture with a masher until slightly chunky. Add chickpeas to the potato mixture, reserving about 3 tablespoons of beans for later. Mash everything until well blended. Stir in reserved chickpeas, parsley, salt, lemon zest, paprika, pepper and egg whites. With moistened hands, form small patties with the mixture, about 2 heaping tablespoons each patty (if you're making sliders, double for bigger burgers).

Heat one tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet. Add patties to pan, cook over medium heat for four minutes and turn over and cook for another four minutes. Work in batches if your pan isn’t big enough.
