Experimente este Hambúrguer Vegano de Grão de Bico: saudável, fácil de fazer e cheio de sabor. Ideal para uma refeição leve e plant-based!

Ingredientes

  • 1 xícara de grão de bico cozido e escorrido

  • 1/4 xícara de farinha de aveia (ou outra farinha vegana)

  • 1/2 cebola picada

  • 1 dente de alho picado

  • 1/2 cenoura ralada

  • 1 colher de chá de cominho em pó

  • Sal e pimenta a gosto

  • Azeite para grelhar

Modo de Preparo

  • Em um processador, coloque o grão de bico, a farinha de aveia, a cebola, o alho, a cenoura, o cominho, o sal e a pimenta.
  • Processe até obter uma mistura homogênea, mas com algumas partes do grão de bico ainda visíveis, para dar textura.
  • Molde a massa em formato de hambúrgueres.
  • Em uma frigideira antiaderente, aqueça um fio de azeite e grelhe os hambúrgueres por cerca de 5 minutos de cada lado, ou até ficarem dourados.

Dica da Chef

  • Adicione ervas frescas, como salsinha ou cebolinha, para dar um toque extra de sabor. Para um hambúrguer mais firme, deixe a mistura descansar na geladeira por 20 minutos antes de grelhar.
