The lentils weren't cooked after 15min- they needed longer
I wasn't a real fan. They were quite crumbly when cooking so we ended up with nuggets really. Then the taste was quite dry and bland. I think some pumpkin or sweet potato would gove the needed flavour
Hi - I'm new to thermo cooking - I noticed the lentils were not cooked after the initial 15 minute cooking time - just wondering if the lentils are meant to be fully cooked after the 1st 15 minutes???
Maybe I have done something wrong???
Delicious. I added fresh basil and garlic and used only 120g breadcrumbs.
Held together well when cooked but I found these burgers to be very bland and dense.
Delicious! I added in some corn kernals and omited parsley, and this worked well. I froze right after shaping into patties, and then cooked in a frypan with a little oil straight from frozen, and they cooked perfectly. Thank you!
I lOve all your recipes. Thank you
Nice to have these for a change but I would also substitute 150gm chickpeas for 150gm of either pumpkin or sweet potato and extra cumin next time as I thought they were rather bland. I served them with my home made mango/ chilli chutney for extra flavour.
I have been looking for a delicious chick pea & lentil patty for ages. This was it! Absolutely made my day. LOVED it!! I substituted 150g of chickpeas for 150g cooked pumpkin & served these with broccoli salad and chilli mayo. Yuum. Will be a family fave from now on!
Just made (looking forward to eating for dinner!) I added about 100g of steamed sweet potato pieces, and in place of the cumin I put in 1 tablespoon of home made thai green curry paste! Smells beautiful and the mix moulded into burgers so easily, thank you
