Chickpea Burgers

I am conscious of what I eat during the week and that variety is important so not to get bored and reach for the biscuit tin, time is also a big constraint on what goes on the menu. The last thing I want to do after a long day’s work is sweat over a hot stove for hours on end, so I am always looking for simple, quick and more importantly TASTY options to bring to the dining table. Ingredients: 1 can of chickpeas 1 carrot 2 shallots 1 large egg 2 tbsp breadcrumbs Salt & pepper Ground Cumin Cayenne Pepper Grate the carrots and chop the shallots finely (or whizz in a food processor with the grater attachment), transfer to a pan with a little olive oil and sweat for a few minutes to sweeten the shallots slightly, set aside.         Drain and rinse the chickpeas and put them into a food processor with all the spices, salt and pepper. Slightly pulse for a rough and chunky paste. Stir in the carrot, shallots, egg, and breadcrumbs until evenly mixed. Time to get you

Dust the baking tray with flour and lie the base piece of puff pastry onto the tray. Spread a generous amount of tomato puree on the pastry leaving a 1cm border all the way round the base. Crumble 200g of feta cheese onto the base, add the spinach keeping the 1cm border clear, then scatter the remaining 150g of feta cheese on top. Co
