Step by Step
How to make it?
2
Add the bulgur
10 minSprinkle the fine bulgur over the boiling lentils, turn off the heat, cover and let it steam for 10 minutes.
3
Sauté the base
5 minSauté the onion in olive oil until pink, then add the tomato paste, pepper flakes and cumin; cook 5 more minutes and stir into the steamed lentil-bulgur mixture.
4
Knead and shape
15 minOnce the mixture has cooled slightly, add the spring onion, parsley and lemon juice and knead well; shape into patties by hand and serve wrapped in lettuce leaves.
Reminder
Knead the mixture while it is still warm; once it cools it loses its oil and starts to fall apart. Allergens: contains gluten (fine bulgur).

Harcı ılık haldeyken değil biraz daha sıcakken yoğurdum, tarifin uyardığı gibi elimde dağılmadan güzelce şekillendi. 25 dakikalık toplam pişirme süresi de tam bana yetti, akşam yemeği için hızlıca hazırladım.

Etsiz olmasına rağmen bulgur sayesinde çok doyurucu, kimyon kokusu da tam kararında olmuş.
