    I wasn't a real fan. They were quite crumbly when cooking so we ended up with nuggets really. Then the taste was quite dry and bland. I think some pumpkin or sweet potato would gove the needed flavour

    Hi - I'm new to thermo cooking - I noticed the lentils were not cooked after the initial 15 minute cooking time - just wondering if the lentils are meant to be fully cooked after the 1st 15 minutes??? 

     

    Maybe I have done something wrong???

    Held together well when cooked but I found these burgers to be very bland and dense.

    Delicious! I added in some corn kernals and omited parsley, and this worked well. I froze right after shaping into patties, and then cooked in a frypan with a little oil straight from frozen, and they cooked perfectly. Thank you!

    Submitted by Sylvia A on 2. May 2015 - 11:39.

    Nice to have these for a change but I would also substitute 150gm chickpeas for 150gm of either pumpkin or sweet potato and extra cumin next time as I thought they were rather bland. I served them with my home made mango/ chilli chutney for extra flavour. tmrc_emoticons.)

    Just made (looking forward to eating for dinner!) I added about 100g of steamed sweet potato pieces, and in place of the cumin I put in 1 tablespoon of home made thai green curry paste! Smells beautiful and the mix moulded into burgers so easily, thank you tmrc_emoticons.) tmrc_emoticons.)

    Love these! I'm trying to have a few meat free days and these will definitely be on the menu again. My 5 year old fussy eater even enjoyed them. Now that's a winner for me!!

    Delicious! I was worried that the patties were quite soft, but they cooked beautifully and were very tasty. We had them in flat bread with salad and cheese as a yummy hot day dinner. Thanks!

    Submitted by DanJo on 9. September 2013 - 13:16.

    These are great!  17yo daughter couldn't believe she had burgers for dinner with NO meat and then suggested we do that more often.  Our other 4 teens loved them too.  They aren't vegetarian either!  tmrc_emoticons.p

    Thank you for coming up with these.
