Lentil Patties

Cooking too much lentils for one dish results in a second one.

Using lentils for a meat substitute is nothing new. They are high in protein. I went on Pintetest to look for some recipes, but most of them were boring and vegan.

Then I remembered my wild herb excursions and the cooking afterwards. We made lentil patties and they were good.

Recipe for 6:

250 g cooked brown lentils

1 green onion

1 orange long pepper

1 egg

60 g Labneh

30 g shedded cheese

4 tbsp parsley

1 tsp onion powder

50 g breadcrumbs

Salt, pepper, chili, smoked paprika, thyme

Spray oil

Preheat the oven 180 C fan.

Chop onion, pepper and parsley very fine. Bring everything together and check if more breadcrumbs are needed. 

If you don't find Labneh, use some cream cheese.

Use baking paper and put some oil on it. Place 6 patties on the baking sheet and sprizz some oil on top.

Bake for 12 min, then carefully flip over and bake an other 8 min.

Serve with salad and Greek yogurt.
