When i was filming a challenge for Youtube – eating only green food – i decided to test making green pea patties.

Usually i find making bean burgers rather hard…. they either crumble apart or are too dry, or if you use too much flour as a binder they can end up tasting rubbery. So basically i don’t make bean burgers so often – not to mention that i am not a huge fan of them either. I find that they often lack texture which i want in my meals… they are too soft or crumbly.
HOWEVER…. i decided to just throw together some ingredients and try making green pea/chickpea burgers, and i was positively surprised with the burgers. Infact, they turned out very good so i thought i would share the “recipe”!
Recipe:
Arond 150-200g peas (boiled/defrosted)
1x 400g can of chickpeas
Salt & pepper
1-2 cloves garlic
1/2 small red onion
Around 100g breadcrumbs (start off with half and add more if necessary)
Around 1tbsp cornstarch
Oil for frying
How to:
Begin by boiling the peas. Dice the garlic and onion.
In a bowl mix together the peas, chickpeas (minus the aquafaba), garlic and onion. Mix until it is combined – but not so mixed that it turns into hummus.
Then add your seasoning of choice – and some salt and pepper. Along with the breadcrumbs… start off with half and add more if necessary.
If the mix is too loose, then add some cornstarch or a little flour.
Form into patties and fry on medium heat – turning over after a few minutes.
Eat either warm or cold, works great either way!
Combine these patties with some sauce, rice or roasted potatoes 🙂
