Ingredients :
1 can of drained chickpeas ( about 250 gr OR 1 cup)
Grated cheese ( as much as you like, i used about 50 gr)
Breadcrumbs
1 egg
2-3 tbsp of lemon juice
2 tbsp of plain flour
Fresh coriander
Fresh Mint
Fresh Parsley
Fresh Dill
Olive oil 2 tbsp
Pinch of cumin
Pinch of cinnamon
Pinch of salt and pepper
Directions:
Step 1 : Into your food processor add your drained chickpeas. Then add all your spices and all your greens. Pulse few times, we want to keep the texture of the chickpeas.
Step 2 : Place your mixture into a bowl, add 1 egg, lemon juice, cheese and flour. Mix everything together.
Step 3 : Take about 1 tbsp of the mixture, roll into a patty and dip into breadcrumbs from both sides. Make sure your hands are a bit wet so the mixture doesn't stick to them. I usually prepare a bowl with water and a plate with breadcrumbs.
Step 4 : Cook your chickpea cutlets for about 5 min on each side until they are nice and golden. Enjoy with salad, on their own or with sour cream.
