7. Prepare 1 1/2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions to make Red Lentil Veggie Burger Patties - Healthy, Vegan and Delicious!:

1. The day before: Rinse lentils well, place in a bowl or jar, cover with water to twice the height of the lentils and leave to soak for 12-24 hours. In a pinch: boil a pot of water, remove from heat and add lentils. Soak for 30-45 mins and continue with recipe.
2. Note about optional ingredients: The rice makes the patties slightly fluffier, the nut and seed butters make them moist and add nutrition.
3. Prepare rice and quinoa. I like to make a large amount for a meal the day before and put aside enough for the patties.
4. Quinoa: Rinse well and leave to soak (optional) for 30 mins up to 4 hours. Drain, place in small pot with 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil, turn down heat, cover and leave to simmer for 15 mins. Fluff with a fork and leave uncovered for another 5 mins.
5. Rice: Rinse well. Place in pot with 3 times the amount of water (for example, 1.5 c water for 1/2 c of rice). Bring to a boil, turn down heat to very low and leave covered to simmer for 45 mins. Remove from heat and leave covered another 5 mins.
6. Drain lentils. Place them in food processor (or bowl for stick blender) with onion, garlic, parsley, olive oil, almond butter, sesame butter and seasoning. Blend until mixture becomes a pasty batter. You can stop a little sooner for more texture.
7. Add rice and quinoa to the mixture and check seasoning. Frying makes the patties bland, so the seasoning should taste a little too strong.
8. Heat oil in skillet. Spoon out or shape patties with your hands and gently place in oil. Fry both sides until lightly browned, about 3 mins per side.
9. Yields 8 burger-style patties or 12-16 smaller patties.
10. I have successfully frozen the mix, thawed it in the fridge overnight and prepared patties from it.
