Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3.333 cups Pumpkin (e. g. butternut pumpkin)
  • 2 Tbsps olive oil
  • 2.5 cups chickpeas (tin, rinsed, drained)
  • 1.75 cups breadcrumbs (approx.)
  • 1 egg
  • 0.5 bunch fresh cilantro (chopped)
  • 2 Tbsps Garam Masala
  • 1 organic Lime (juice)
  • 2 cloves garlic cloves (crushed)
  • 4 Tbsps vegetable oil
  • Lime wedge
  • cilantro (leaves)

Instruction

  • Heat the oven to 200°C (180°C in a fan oven), 400°F, gas 6.
  • Chop the pumpkin flesh into 2 cm cubes. Mix with the olive oil and place on a baking tray lined with baking parchment. Bake for approx. 25 minutes.
  • Remove the pumpkin from the oven, let cool and mash roughly with the chickpeas; some of the chickpeas should remain whole. Add the breadcrumbs, egg, coriander, garam masala, lime juice and mix well. Knead in the garlic.
  • Wet your hands slightly and form the mixture into small patties. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the patties on both sides until golden brown. Reduce the heat and continue to fry gently until the patties are cooked.
  • Drain the patties on kitchen paper and serve, garnished with lime wedges and coriander.
