Vegetarian patties loaded with garbanzo, sweet potatoes, and spices.
Course Snack
Servings 15 patties
Total Time 35 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups canned garbanzo beans
  • 1 medium sweet potato peeled and grated
  • ½ tsp cumin powder
  • 1 tsp coriander powder
  • ¼ tsp ground black pepper
  • ½ tsp dry mango powder/amchur optional
  • ¼ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp grated ginger
  • 1 serrano pepper minced
  • ¼ cup cilantro chopped
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup cornmeal
  • salt to taste
  • oil for pan frying

Instructions
 

  • Rinse and drain the canned garbanzo completely. The beans should be dry to the touch. Use a paper towel to absorb any extra moisture if necessary. Place the garbanzo beans in a large bowl.
  • Add all the ingredients except the cornmeal and mix until all the ingredients come together—no need to knead. Add salt to taste.
  • Divide the mixture into lime sized balls. Flatten each ball between your palms.
  • Roll all patties in cornmeal and set aside.
  • Heat 2-3 tablespoons of oil in a skillet, preferably non-stick, on medium heat. Pan fry all the patties on both sides for three minutes (each side) and serve warm with ketchup.
