Today we're making rice and lentil burgers, an easy and delicious way to bring something different to our everyday meals. We combine brown lentils and brown rice with vegetables, and finish them in the oven. We just blend the mixture a tiny bit so we can shape them easily without losing that texture we love so much.

Prep: 20 minCook: 50 minServes: 4

Ingredients

Here are the ingredients you need for this recipe

  • 1 spring onion
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 small cup of brown lentils
  • 1 small cup of brown rice
  • 2 egg whites or 1 egg
  • Garlic powder
  • Ground black pepper

Step by step

Method

  1. 1Cook our lentils, drain, and set aside.
  2. 2Cook our rice, drain, and set aside.
  3. 3Preheat the oven to 200°.
  4. 4Peel and finely chop the vegetables.
  5. 5Mix all the ingredients mentioned above.
  6. 6Add the egg whites or the egg.
  7. 7Season to taste with pepper and garlic powder, and mix again.
  8. 8Now blend with an immersion blender just a tiny bit, just enough so the mixture is easy to handle. If you blend it too much it will turn into a purée and the burgers won't look as nice.
  9. 9Bake in the oven for 10–20 min at 200° with the grill on. Let them rest.
  10. 10All done! Our RICE AND LENTIL BURGERS are ready
