Spiced Lentil Carrot Veggie Burgers
1 cup uncooked lentils
3 carrots, grated
1 onion, diced
3/4 cup whole grain flour, as needed
pinch sea salt and black pepper
1 teaspoon coriander
1 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 to 2 teaspoon(s) olive oil
1. Before you begin, the lentils must be fully cooked. Gently boil them in enough water to cover them by 2 ", with NO salt. Lentils will take about 30 minutes to cook. Drain lentils and place in bowl.
2. Add carrots and onion. Mash them a bit, but not too much. Add enough flour to get them to the point where they will stick together. You may also need to add a bit of water.
3. Season the mix with the spices (coriander, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper); stir them through well. With your hands, form the lentil mix into burger shapes.
4. Add a teaspoon of olive oil to a heated pan and lay the burgers in. Leave them for about 10 minutes on the first side, flip, and cook another 5 to 7 minutes. Put the burgers in an oven on low heat to keep them warm while you cook the second batch.

These look delicious. I've seen sloppy joe's and other vegan or vegetarian recipes that use mashed carrots. They give it a nice consistency.

They are delicious!! Now I always have some prepared in the freezer! Thank you so much for the recipe.
I was in sort of a hurry when I was making these and so I had no time to put them in the freezer or fridge and so I was nervous when I began to form the patties and noticed how soft and mushy they were - but I threw them in the pan anyway and to my surprise they held up better than any other bean burger I have ever made!! I was so excited!! And they taste really good too! I added some peas to the mix just because I felt like it and I loved that addition. And I also added some garlic.
I ended up with 12 patties! I tried them inside a bun and without a bun and like them either way! Thanks for sharing this recipe!
We used sprouted lentils, and added a bit of tomato and red bell pepper in the patties, they turned out great!
Fantastic and really easy :) Looking back I would have added a bit more sea salt but my "pinch" was on the small side to begin with. My burgers were not as thick, so it yielded 8 burgers. If you're reading this, make these now!
These were really good! I followed the above comments and placed the mix in the refrigerator for a while before cooking to ensure the patties stuck together. I also added a chia "egg" to bind it all. For the wholegrain flour I used spelt, doubled the seasonings and added a few leaves of basil that needed to be used up. Thanks so much for sharing this! I served the patties on spelt buns with coriander chutney- yum! Oh, and am I the only one who got 12 giant patties not 6?! leftovers- yippee!
After mixing all the ingredients, I put the bowl in the refrigerator for one hour. The mixture was very easy to shape into burgers.
The carrots add to the color and texture.
I plan to try the liquid smoke suggestion next time.
yum! i just made these and they turned out great! i added some chopped red bell pepper and a little garlic powder. i did have to add a little water to make sure they stayed together. it made quite a bit of "mix" so this will be great for leftovers, too! ;)b
Recipe turned out great! I followed the suggestion above and placed them in the freezer for a bit to help firm them up, which was beneficial.
I also added about a teaspoon of Liquid Smoke which made them taste even more grill/burger-like.
