Ingredients:

  • 1 (400 g) can chickpeas
  • 1 medium onion
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 cup oats
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 tsp salt (to taste)
  • 1 dash pepper (to taste)

Directions:

  1. Throw the onion and garlic (peeled!) in a food processor until they're chopped.
  2. Drain chickpeas and give them a wash, then add them to food processor. Pulse until mashed - but not to mushy!
  3. Scrape the onion/garlic/chickpeas mix into a large bowl and add all remaining ingredients.
  4. Mix until completly blended.
  5. The mix should be thick but not too stiff.
  6. Grease a non-stick pan and drop mixture in tablespoon sized 'blobs' into the pan.
  7. Cook on each side for a few minutes - until browned and slightly crunchy- then flip.
  8. Continue until all mix is cooked.
  9. ENJOY!
  10. P.S: the final product will be a bit crumbly but it doesn't matter - they're so delicious!
