Red lentil and carrot patties

Ingredients

• 1 onion
• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 4 carrots (about 400g)
• 200g red lentils
• 120g gluten-free rolled oats
• 2 garlic cloves
• 1 Tbsp lemon juice
• 1 Tbsp paprika
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 bunch of coriander
• Salt
• Pepper
• Water

Materials

• 1 blender

Preparation

• Cut your onion into pieces and sauté it in a pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  Add the peeled and sliced carrots. Cover with water and let simmer for 15-20 minutes (until the vegetables are tender).
  Drain if necessary and set aside.
• Cook the red lentils in a pot of water for about 20-25 minutes.
  Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
  
• In a blender, add the carrots, onion, red lentils, lemon juice, garlic cloves, spices, salt, pepper, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and half of the rolled oats.
• Once the mixture has turned into a paste, place it in a bowl and add the remaining rolled oats. Mix well.
  Add the chopped coriander. Mix again.
  If the mixture seems too runny, feel free to add more rolled oats.
  
• On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, form patties.
  Here we used a cookie cutter, but you can also just form balls with the mixture and flatten them once placed on the baking sheet.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes.
  
• And there you have it, your patties are ready! Feel free to make a sauce to accompany them.
  Here, we mixed yogurt, lemon juice, and some herbs.

Observations

Spices: Feel free to vary the flavors by modifying them (cumin, curry, Espelette pepper, nutmeg, ginger...)
