Method

  1. Cook the lentils and vegetables

  3. Mash the mixture

    • Drain the cooked lentils and vegetables and transfer to a bowl.
    • Mash until you get a good consistency, using an immersion blender to help.

  6. Fry the patties

    • Heat the corn oil in a cast iron pan.
    • Spoon the mixture into patties and fry until golden brown on the bottom.
    • Flip carefully and fry the other side until crispy.
    Step 6

  7. Make the breadcrumb version

    • Mix the breadcrumbs into a portion of the lentil mixture without adding water, until it thickens.
