110 g Chickpea flour
Cover, place in refrigerator, and allow to infuse for at least an hour or overnight.
After the cooling time, remove from the refrigerator and divide into four equal portions. If you like the patties smaller, make 6 servings.
Preheat oven to 200degrees convection (or 220 top bottom heat) and bake patties for 15 minutes. Note: Pre-baking in the oven is important so that the patties are cooked through on the inside. On the grill or in the pan, they are then seared for just a few minutes on both sides.
Heat grill or skillet and place patties directly on grill or in skillet. For pan frying, I recommend using a little oil so the patties don't get too dry. For grilling, generously brush the pre-baked patties with oil to make them nice and crispy on the outside.
Oil
Slice burger bun, toast briefly (optional), place lettuce leaf on bottom, place pattie on top, tomato slices, onion rings and pickles. Refine with sauce of choice and enjoy!
