Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 4 minutes, until translucent and caramelized. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and let it cool.

Pulse for 2 minutes or until you have a thick batter. Add flour and pulse for 1 more minute. Divide the batter in 4 balls for large chickpea burgers or 8 balls for chickpea sliders and transfer to a floured surface. Shape the patties. Heat a greased skillet over medium heat. Add the chickpea patties and cook for 3 minutes per side. Top with whatever burger toppings you like!

GARBANZO BEAN BURGER WITH TEHINA ONION SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and saute the onions, carrots, garlic, cumin, celery seed, and salt over medium heat until the onions are transparent. In a food processor, combine the nuts, and blend until 1/2 are a coarse meal and the other are just cracked. Place in a large mixing bowl and add the Sauteed vegetable mixture. Add the garbanzo beans in the processor and process the same way as the nuts. Add flour and arrowroot. Add the beans and parsley to the mixing bowl. Mix everything together well until the mixture has enough body to form a patty. If the mixture is too dry or crumbly, add a small amount of water to help the mixture bind. Form the mixture into 4 burgers. Lightly oil the frying pan and fry the burgers over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes on each side until lightly browned.
• Heat oil in skillet, saute onion, scallion and garlic until soft. Add tehina and stir until lightly roasted. Dissolve miso and seasoning in 3/4 cup water. Stir into tehina. Add vinegar and simmer 5 minutes but do not boil. Add fresh parsley.
