Instructions:
-
Mash the Garbanzo Beans: In a large bowl, thoroughly mash the garbanzo beans and cooked basmati rice together until well combined.
-
Combine Ingredients: Add the chopped celery, scallions, hot green chili pepper, grated parmesan cheese, oyster sauce, and freshly chopped parsley to the bowl. Mix everything together very well to ensure even distribution of flavors.
-
Adjust Consistency: If the mixture appears too dry and crumbly to form patties, gradually add vegetable broth a little at a time until the mixture becomes moist enough to hold its shape. Be cautious not to add too much broth, as it can make the mixture too wet.
-
Form Patties: With clean hands, shape the mixture into small patties of your desired size. Remember that the size doesn’t matter too much, so feel free to shape them according to your preference.
-
Cook the Patties: Heat a skillet over medium to medium-high heat and add a small amount of oil. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the patties in the skillet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Cook the patties until they are golden brown on each side, flipping them gently to cook evenly.
-
Avoid Overcooking: Be vigilant while cooking the patties and avoid letting them become too dark, as this can result in them becoming overly crunchy on the outside.
-
Serve and Enjoy: These savory garbanzo patties are best enjoyed fresh off the skillet. Serve them hot with a side of lime-chili chutney for a zesty kick, or try them with a dollop of ketchup for a classic touch. Get creative with your condiments and toppings to personalize your culinary experience. Bon appรฉtit! ๐ฝ๏ธ
-
Optional: For added flair, garnish the patties with a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley or a drizzle of your favorite sauce before serving.
-
Storage Tip: If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Reheat them in a skillet or toaster oven for a quick and convenient meal option.
