Ingredients
1 1/2 cups cooked lentils (brown or green):
1 flax egg (or 1 large egg): To make one, simply mix one tablespoon of ground flaxseed with three tablespoons of water and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes gelatinous. This gel mimics the binding properties of a regular egg. If you are not vegan or don’t have flaxseed, one large regular egg works perfectly as well.
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 medium onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 1/2 tbsp coriander and mint leaves finely chopped.
