Directions Red Lentil Burgers
Directions
-
Combine water and lentils in a saucepan, bring to a boil and cook until the water is completely absorbed and the lentils tender yet holding form, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer lentils to a large bowl and let cool.
Stir onion, cilantro, garlic, mustard, cumin, parsley, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes into the lentils, add flour as needed to help absorb excess moisture and bind ingredients together. Shape lentil mixture into 4 patties.
Prepare a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
Cook burgers in the hot skillet until firm and hot in the center, 4 to 7 minutes per side.
