Red Lentil Burgers image

Red lentils are my favorite. I was craving something lentil-y and found a recipe that was just what i wanted after I changed it up a little. I topped them with cherry tomatoes and garlic sprouts. I will totally make this again, it was so amazing!

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ½ cups hot water
1 cup red lentils
1 large onion, minced
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon spicy Dijon mustard, or more to taste
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, or as needed
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Combine water and lentils in a saucepan; bring to a boil and cook until the water is completely absorbed and the lentils tender yet holding form, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer lentils to a large bowl and let cool.
  • Stir onion, cilantro, garlic, mustard, cumin, parsley, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes into the lentils; add flour as needed to help absorb excess moisture and bind ingredients together. Shape lentil mixture into 4 patties.
  • Prepare a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
  • Cook burgers in the hot skillet until firm and hot in the center, 4 to 7 minutes per side.

Overall, I thought these lentil burgers were just okay. They're not bad, but they're not great either.

These lentil burgers are a good option for a healthy meal, but they're not the most flavorful burgers I've ever had.

I found these lentil burgers to be a bit too dry. I think they would be better with a sauce or some kind of spread.

These lentil burgers are a bit bland for my taste. I think they need more seasoning.
