INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cooked Lentils (198g)
1/2 cup Firm Tofu (126g)
1/4 cup Rolled Oats (22g)
1 tbsp Nutritional Yeast (8g)
1/4 cup Chopped Onion (40g)
2 cloves Minced Garlic (6g)
1/2 cup Sliced Cucumber (52g)
1/3 cup Diced Tomato (50g)
Salt, Pepper, and Cumin to taste
PREPARATION
In a large bowl, mash the cooked lentils lightly with a fork, leaving some texture.
Crumble the firm tofu and add it to the lentils.
Mix in rolled oats, nutritional yeast, chopped onion, and minced garlic.
Season the mixture with salt, pepper, and a pinch of cumin. Mix until well combined.
Shape the mixture into small patties.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly spray or use a dry non-stick pan to cook the patties without added oil.
Place the patties in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they develop a crispy exterior.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, toss together the sliced cucumber and diced tomato with a sprinkle of salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon if desired.
Plate the crispy lentil patties alongside the fresh cucumber tomato salad and serve warm.
