Free-From Veggie Burgers
Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Soya-Free, Vegetarian
Ingredients
- 100 g mixed nuts - I used salted but you could use unsalted and add a little salt
- 200 g tinned butter beans - chickpeas or whatever else you have in the cupboard
- 1/2 onion - finely chopped
- 1 tsp mixed herbs
- 3 tsp tomato puree
- 25 g gluten-free oats
- 1 medium free range egg
- A little oil for frying
Instructions
- Put a frying pan on a medium heat
- Place the nuts into a handheld chopper or food processor and blitz until broken up a little
- Add all the other ingredients and blitz until it comes together
- (Refrigerate the mix for around 30 minutes to make it easier to handle) - optional
- Add a little oil (I use coconut because it's better for cooking at high temperatures than other vegetable oils) to your frying pan and turn the heat down to low
- Gently remove 1/4 of the mix and pop it into the frying pan. Take care while you shape it into a rough burger shape
- Repeat with the remaining mixture
- Cook for around 5-10 minutes on each side until firm
- Alternatively, shape the burgers on a piece of tin foil and cook on a cool spot of the barbecue.
