300 g chickpeas
1 1/4 cups breadcrumbs
2 small zucchini
3 garlic cloves
4 teaspoons cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • In large bowl, COMBINE chickpeas (I used canned), breadcrumbs, grated zucchini, finely diced or grated cloves, cumin, cayenne, egg and coriander.
  • HELPFUL HINT: With the back of a fork, break the chickpeas and make sure all ingredients are well combined.
  • With hands, form into patties (Makes about 8).
  • In frypan, heat pan, then oil (I used extra-virgin olive oil), FRY until brown; remove and place on paper towel to drain.
  • I enjoy these with store bought Greek yogurt.
  • ENJOY!
  • NOTE: The patties are supposed to be slightly dry; may need to adjust/increase breadcrumbs slightly by 1/4 cup.
