Preparing these legume burgers is really simple and intuitive, ideal for those who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet. It is also possible to make them and keep them in the freezer for about 2 weeks waiting to be cooked in the oven or in a pan.

Ingredients

  • 10,6 oz (300 g) of dried lentils
  • 2 large carrots
  • 1 onion
  • 2 potatoes
  • 1 celery stick
  • Bread crumbs q.s.
  • Flour q.s. (any type)
  • Aromatic herbs and various spices
  • Salt
  • Extra virgin olive oil

Preparation

  1. Soak the legumes in water for as long as necessary.
  2. In a large saucepan, pour the legumes, cover them abundantly with water and add the carrots, onion, celery and potato (cleaned from the peel) together with a drizzle of oil, basil (and/or other herbs and spices) and salt.
  3. When the mixture is thoroughly cooked and dry, pour into a bowl and, with the aid of a whisk for dough or a fork, reduce to a pulp. Add a few tablespoons of flour if everything is too soft.
  4. Create medallions by compacting the mixture well and cover them with breadcrumbs. Bake, pan or keep them in the freezer for 2-3 weeks.
