Ingredients
-
2 stalks celery, minced
-
2 scallions, minced
-
1 1/2 cups canned garbanzo beans, drained
-
1 1/2 cups cooked basmati rice
-
1 -2 tablespoon freshly grated parmesan cheese
-
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
-
2 -3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
-
vegetable broth, as needed
-
oil, for frying
-
2/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
-
1 -2 hot green chili pepper
Instructions
- First take a large bowl and mash garbanzo beans and rice together thoroughly.
- Add the rest of the ingredients except broth and combine VERY WELL.
- If the mixture is too dry to form patties, add a bit of broth to moisten it, but NOT TOO MUCH.
- Form small patties (size really doesnt matter too much).
- Heat a skillet over medium to medium-high heat with a small amount of oil (vegetable oil, or any other oil you choose) and add patties, cooking them until golden brown on each side.
- Do not allow them to get too dark, because they will get too crunchy on the outside if you cook them too long.
- We like to eat these with a bit of lime-chile chutney on the side, and sometimes we'll even eat them with a bit of ketchup!
- haha.
- ENJOY!
