Vegan Lentil Burger

Add lentils, water, and salt into a pot and bring to boil. Cook on medium heat for about 45 minutes or until the no water remains. 

While lentils are cooking, prepare a large mixing bowl and add bread crumbs and oat flour. Stir well and set aside.

In a large pan add olive oil, diced carrot, onion, and pepper. Cook on medium to low heat for about 5 minutes. When done, transfer it in the bowl with the dry ingredients (bread crumbs and lentils). Stir everything well and set aside. 

When lentils are cooked, transfer 2/3 cooked lentils to the food processor and process several times until it becomes a puree. Then add the puree and 1/3 of the lentils that were not processed, to the bowl with the rest of the ingredients. Add a soy sauce, and stir until everything is combined. Use your hands to form patties. This mixture will give you 7 large patties (about 3 inches).

Burger patties can be fried with a little olive oil for 2-3 minutes each side, or baked for about 15 minutes. Choose which option suits you the best. We pan-fried ours.

Serve and enjoy!
