Spicy Chick Pea Burgers


You might think there's no point even attempting these as they'll take ages. But they took me about 20minutes to knock up after coming home starving having play 2hrs of volleyball after a 6mile hill run. Give them a go, they're delicious.

Ingredients
3/4 can of chickpeas
Fresh coriander
sliced spring onions
finely chopped carrot
sprinkle of turmeric
fresh lemon juice
2dsp of cooked wholegrain rice (or use quinoa - i needed my carbs!)
small Bird's Eye Chilli, finely chopped (or to taste)
Polenta grains for dusting
Mash of whizz up the chickpeas in food processor. Add the veggies and turmeric and stir. sprinkle uncooked polenta or cornmeal on a chopping board. Shape the patties (sld make two) and roll in the polenta. Using a tiny bit of oil or dry fry the patties, cook until browned. serve with a veggie salad dressed with lemon juice.
Don't be afraid to experiment - you can whack any old veggie in there -as long as it fits the FB eating principles of course!
