Ingredients

Instructions

1) For the yogurt sauce, seed your cucumber and then grate it through a box grater into a colander. Add a sprinkle of salt and let the cucumber sit for 10-15 minutes.

2) Dice other yogurt sauce ingredients and combine with cucumber. You could make this in advance.

3) For patties, toast breadcrumbs in a dry pan for five minutes until they are lightly toasted. (optional)

4) Whisk together eggs, garam masala, oil, and a pinch of salt.

5) Add your drained chickpeas to a large bowl with the diced onions and mash them with a fork or masher. You could also pulse them lightly in a food processor.

6) Stir the egg mixture and breadcrumbs and other ingredients into the chickpeas and mix well.

7) Form eight even-sized patties with the chickpea mixture.

8) Cook patties in a pan with a drizzle of oil over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes per side. They should be nicely browned on each side.

9) Serve the patties with the yogurt sauce.
