Ingredients:

Serving

225 g chickpeas , soaked overnight and drained
2 tbsp flavourless oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 green chilies , deseeded and finely chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tsp minced fresh ginger
1/2-3/4 tsp turmeric powder
1/2-3/4 tsp ground coriander
1/2-3/4 tsp ground cumin
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 -2 tbsp yoghurt
3 -4 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
salt
1 egg, lightly beaten
3 -4 tbsp breadcrumbs
2 -3 tbsp flavourless oil

Directions:

Put the drained chickpeas in a saucepan and enough water to cover them and bring to boil, cover and simmer for about an hour till they are absolutely tender.
Drain them thoroughly and in a large bowl mash the chickpeas to a pulp (not puree - the chickpeas should still have their texture).
Add the oil in a saucepan and gently fry the onion, green chillies, garlic and ginger until softened but not browned, about 5-6 minutes.
Then add in the ground spices and fry for another 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and add them to the mashed chickpeas.
Add in the lemon juice, yoghurt and chopped coriander, season well and give it all a good mix.
When the mixture is cool enough to handle, form into 12 patties, they should be about 1/2 inch thick.
Coat each first with the beaten egg then the breadcrumbs.
Heat the oil for frying in a pan and when hot, fry the patties to a golden-brown colour, takes about 2-3 minutes on each side.
Drain well on kitchen paper and serve immediately.
