Ingredients

• 1 cup dry lentils
• 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
• 1/2 cup bread crumbs
• 1/2 cup finely chopped green pepper
• 2 cans coconut milk
• 1-3 cloves minced garlic (to taste - I only use 1)

• 1/2 tsp oregano
• salt & pepper
• 1 egg beaten
• 1 tbsp milk
• Oil
• Tabasco (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

Rinse lentils and then cook in 2 1/2 cups water. About 1/2 hour. Drain and mash. Mix with seeds, crumbs, pepper, onion, garlic and spices. Add Tabasco if desired. Season to taste. Mix in egg. Add enough milk to moisten.

Shape into burgers. Fry on both sides in hot oil.

Serve in a pita with sour cream tomato and sprouts or lettuce.
