Ingredients:
- 1 cup almonds
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 1/2 onion, finely chopped
- 1 carrot, grated
- 1/4 cup tamari
- 1 lemon, juiced
Instructions:
-
Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the almonds, tahini, chopped onion, and grated carrot. Stir well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
-
-
Add Seasoning: Pour in half of the tamari and half of the lemon juice. Stir the mixture thoroughly to incorporate the flavors.
-
Adjust Consistency: If the mixture seems dry, gradually add the remaining tamari and lemon juice until the mixture holds together in patty form, ensuring it’s not too sloppy.
Tip: If the mixture becomes too wet, you can add additional ground almonds to achieve the desired consistency.
-
Form Patties: Shape the mixture into 6 evenly sized patties, pressing firmly to ensure they hold together.
-
Cook Patties: Heat a little oil in a skillet over medium heat or preheat the broiler. Cook the patties until golden brown and slightly crispy on both sides. This usually takes about 3-4 minutes per side.
-
Serve: Once cooked, serve the almond burgers on a soft roll or stuffed inside a pita pocket. Add your favorite condiments such as lettuce, cucumber slices, and a dollop of raita or chutney.
Enjoy these flavorful almond burgers as a satisfying vegan option for lunch or snacks, packed with wholesome ingredients and bursting with deliciousness! 🌱
