Toppings

Method

Falafel Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Falafel Mixture

    In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, parsley, garlic, cumin, coriander, flour, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until the mixture is well blended but still slightly chunky.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Transfer the mixture to a bowl and form it into 4 equal-sized patties. Make sure they are compact to hold their shape while cooking.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.

Flaxseed Mayo Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Flaxseed Mayo

    In a small bowl, combine ground flaxseed and water. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it thickens. Then stir in apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and garlic powder until smooth.

Assembling the Burger

  1. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each burger bun, spread a generous amount of flaxseed mayo. Place a falafel patty on top, add mixed greens, and top with a spoonful of pepper jelly. Cover with the top half of the bun.
