Notes
- Serve these patties with in a bowl with basmati rice and a salad, or in a falafel pita or my children's favourite... in a burger!
- Add condiments and sauces such as avocado aioli, guacamole, lemon feta dip or mayonnaise.
- These patties freeze and reheat really well.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to four days or in the freezer for up to four months.
- Chickpeas: Although this recipe is for chickpea patties you do not have to use garbanzo beans, white beans such as cannellini or butter beans will also work. I used canned chickpeas but you could use dried chickpeas which have been soaked overnight.
- Lemon juice: This can be substituted for lime juice or a little apple cider vinegar.
- Mint: This can be substituted for other soft green fresh herbs such as fresh parsley cilantro/coriander. If you use other herbs the flavor will be quite different.
- Bread crumbs: These can be substituted for rolled oats, oat flour or gluten-free bread crumbs.
