Vegetarian Lentil Burger

Steps


Combine the lentils , eggs , and salt in a food processor.
Puree until the mixture is the consistency of a runny yet textured hummus.
Pour into a mixing bowl and stir in the onion.
Add the breadcrumbs , stir , and let sit for a couple of minutes so the crumbs can absorb some of the moisture.
At this point , you should have a very moist mixture that you can easily form into twelve 1 1 / 2-inch-thick patties.
You can always add more bread crumbs a bit at a time to firm up the dough if need be.
Conversely , a bit of water or more egg can be used to moisten the batter.
Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over medium low , add 4 patties , cover , and cook for 7 to 10 minutes , until the bottoms begin to brown.
Turn up the heat if there is no browning after 10 minutes.
Flip the patties and cook the second side for 7 minutes , or until golden.
Remove from the skillet and cool on a wire rack while you cook the remaining patties.
Carefully cut each patty in half , insert your favorite .
