Preparation

Step 1

Place the chickpeas, tofu, and sunflower seeds in a food processor, add the onion, bell pepper, salt, and cayenne, and process until well combined, leaving a little texture. Transfer to a plate.

Put the bread crumbs in a shallow bowl. Shape the tofu mixture into 6 patties and coat evenly on both sides with th bread crumbs.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cool the patties, turning once, until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Place on the toasted rolls and serve hot.
