Ingredients
  

For the chickpea patties:
  • 2 cups cooked chickpeas or canned, drained
  • ½ onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs use gluten-free if needed
  • 2 tablespoons fresh coriander chopped
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for cooking
For the tahini sauce:
  • 3 tablespoons tahini
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • 1 clove garlic grated
  • 2 tablespoons water adjust as needed
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. Add chickpeas, onion, garlic, coriander, spices, and breadcrumbs to a processor.
  2. Pulse until combined but not mush. Think “chunky, not clingy.”
  3. Form the mix into 8 small patties using damp hands.
  4. Heat olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat.
  5. Fry patties for 4–5 minutes on each side until golden and bossy.
  6. In a bowl, whisk tahini, lemon juice, maple syrup, garlic, salt, and water.
  7. Adjust sauce thickness. Drizzle, dunk, or smother the patties shamelessly.
  8. Serve hot with salad, wrap, or your favorite judgmental side-eye.

💡 Tips to Slay the Flavor Game

  • Add chili flakes if you're feeling extra.
  • Refrigerate patties before cooking for a firmer vibe.
  • Want smokiness? Add a dash of liquid smoke or smoked paprika.
  • Drizzle leftover tahini on roasted veggies—thank me later.
  • Freeze patties between parchment like a pro meal-prepper with commitment issues.
