Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Soak the chickpeas in cold water for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. Drain the water, rinse the chickpeas, place them in a pot with water, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and cook the chickpeas for 1.5 hours until tender. Add a little salt at the end of cooking.
Step 2
Chop the onion and 2 cloves of garlic, sauté in olive oil until translucent.
Step 3
Transfer the cooked chickpeas to a colander and let them drain well. In a blender, combine the chickpeas, onion and garlic mixture, grated carrot, feta, egg, and breadcrumbs.
Step 4
Blend the ingredients until smooth, seasoning with salt and pepper.
Step 5
Divide the mixture into 4-5 portions and form into burgers. I made 5 patties.
Step 6
Fry the burgers in olive oil for 6-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
Step 7
Slice the buns in half. Toast them in a skillet. Prepare the sauce: mix the yogurt with finely chopped garlic (2 cloves) and herbs. On the bottom halves of the buns, layer a bit of sauce, spinach leaves, a slice of tomato (choose a larger tomato!), a patty, cucumber (sliced into rounds), and a bit more sauce.
Step 8
Enjoy your meal!
