Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1/2 cup diced onions

1/2 cup carrots -- grated

2 cloves garlic -- minced

1 teaspoon cumin

1 teaspoon celery seed

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 cup walnuts

1 1/2 cups cooked garbanzo beans -- (or 1 15-oz can) drained

5 tablespoons gluten flour

2 tablespoons arrowroot powder

1/4 cup fresh parsley -- chopped finely

Oil for frying

TEHINA ONION SAUCE:

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1 onion -- minced

4 scallions -- sliced

2 cloves garlic -- minced

1/2 cup tehina (tahini)

1 tablespoon white miso or sea salt -- to taste

3/4 cup water

1 teaspoon rice vinegar

Fresh parsley -- minced

 

Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and saute the onions, carrots, garlic, cumin,

celery seed, and salt over medium heat until the onions are transparent. In a

food processor, combine the nuts, and blend until 1/2 are a coarse meal and the

other are just cracked. Place in a large mixing bowl and add the sauteed

vegetable mixture. Add the garbanzo beans in the processor and process the same

way as the nuts. Add flour and arrowroot. Add the beans and parsley to the

mixing bowl. Mix everything together well until the mixture has enough body to

form a patty. If the mixture is too dry or crumbly, add a small amount of water

to help the mixture bind. Form the mixture into 4 burgers. Lightly oil the

frying pan and fry the burgers over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes on each side

until lightly browned.

 

SAUCE: Heat oil in skillet, sauté onion, scallion and garlic until soft. Add

tehina and stir until lightly roasted. Dissolve miso and seasoning in 3/4 cup

water. Stir into tehina. Add vinegar and simmer 5 minutes but do not boil. Add

fresh parsley. Yield: About 1 1/2 cups.
