Ingredients
  

  • 1 head cauliflower florets broken apart
  • 1 can chickpeas rinsed and drained
  • 1 bell pepper diced small
  • 1 onion diced small
  • 2 clove garlic minced
  • 1 cup panko
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Boil or steam cauliflower until soft.
  • Sauté onion and bell pepper over low heat until soft. Add garlic and sauté for another minute or so.
  • In a large bowl, mash chickpeas up well with a fork or the bottom of a cup. Add cauliflower and smash up as well. Add all other ingredients and stir until combined.
  • The mix should be wet but come together in a ball without falling apart. Carefully make a ball in your hands with the mix. I did mine a little bigger than a golf ball.
  • Press ball between hands to make a patty. Place patty on oiled pan or baking dish. Continue with the rest of the mix.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, flip the patties. and bake for another 20 minutes or until browned.
