Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Drain and rinse the chickpeas, shake off the excess water, then mash them well in a large bowl with a potato masher or fork.
  2. Add the breadcrumbs, egg, onion, grated garlic, grated carrot, parsley, smoked paprika and cumin, season with salt and pepper, and mix well.
  3. Press the mixture until it forms a paste so the ingredients bind. Divide into three equal pieces, shape each into a ball, then flatten into patties about 1.5 cm (3/8 inch) thick.
  4. Heat a large frying pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
  5. Once the oil is hot, add the patties in a single layer, well spaced, and fry for 5 minutes per side, until golden all over.
  6. For the spicy aioli, whisk together the mayonnaise, grated garlic, hot smoked paprika, lemon juice and olive oil, and season with salt and pepper until creamy.
  7. To assemble, spread sauce on the bottom bun, then add lettuce, a patty, tomato and red onion. Top with more sauce and the top bun.
