YUM! Lentil patties
I made lentil burgers tonight. Yum. They were so so so yummy. They looked perfectly terrible though. They looked like fried new baby poop. Fortunately, I was the one who made them, so I didn't mind trying them first and declaring them yummilicious.
Recipe:
Leftover lentils - about 2 cups?
Leftover brown rice - about 1 cup
frozen peas - about 1/2 cup
6 mushrooms
dried bread crumbs (it was gluten free, of course, and was tapioca bread, I think) About 1 1/2 cups
1 egg
1 green onion
1 tsp garlic powder
a bit of seasoning salt
2 tsp oregano
Mix it all in the food processor until it's really smooth. It's sticky, but that's okay. Form into patties as best as possible and pan fry in a bit of sunflower oil until brown.
Then we put them on fresh buns and added some whole seed mustard. I think it would be good with other veggies mixed in there. Especially celery (but Josie is quite allergic to celery). And I think next time, I'll leave a few lentils out and put them in right at the end, to give it a bit of texture.
I'm quite pleased. And I need a food icon!
