Steps:
- Place the chickpeas, carrot, garlic, onion, eggs and salt in a food processor and pulse until combined. Transfer to a medium bowl, add the breadcrumbs and sesame seeds and stir or gently knead to combine. The mixture will be moist.
- Scoop about 1/4 cup of the mixture with an ice cream scoop then form into a patty with your hands. You should have 9 patties.

Steps:
- To make the yogurt sauce, stir together the yogurt and mint in a bowl and cover and chill until needed.
- Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Half fill a medium saucepan with water and bring to the boil. Add the sweet potato wedges and cook for 4 mins then drain through a colander and return to the saucepan. Pour over the oil, tossing until lightly coated then season with ground black pepper.
- Scatter the potatoes onto a small baking tray and roast for 15 mins. Take out of the oven and turn over, then cook for a further 10 mins or until tender and lightly browned.
- While the chips are cooking, make the burgers. Put the onion, garlic, nuts and spices into a food processor and add lots of freshly ground black pepper. Blitz until as smooth as possible. Add the chickpeas, flour, coriander and lemon juice and blitz until the mixture comes together to make a thick paste. It shouldn't be too smooth as you are looking for some texture to give the burgers a bit of bite. Form the mixture into 4 balls and flatten into burgers, just under 2cm/ 3/4in deep.
- Heat 1 tsp of the oil in a medium non-stick pan over a low heat and cook the burgers on one side for 5 mins. Add the remaining 1 tsp of oil to the pan and turn over. Cook on the other side for a further 5 mins or until nicely browned and cooked throughout, keeping the heat low, so they don't burn.
- Divide the salad leaves, tomatoes, cucumber and spring onions between two plates. Add the burgers, chips and mint sauce, plus a couple of lemon wedges for squeezing. Drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the salad and serve.

Tips:
- Soak the chickpeas overnight or for at least 8 hours. This will help them to soften and cook more evenly.
- Rinse and drain the chickpeas well before using. This will help to remove any excess starch and make the burgers less mushy.
- Use a food processor to grind the chickpeas. This will help to create a smooth and even texture for the burgers.
- Add plenty of flavorings to the burgers, such as herbs, spices, and vegetables. This will help to make them more delicious and interesting.
- Form the burgers into patties that are about 1 inch thick and 3 inches in diameter. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Cook the burgers over medium heat for about 5 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Be careful not to overcook them, or they will become dry and crumbly.
- Serve the burgers immediately with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, and onion. You can also add a dollop of hummus or tzatziki sauce for extra flavor.
