This is so simple to put together, it takes almost no time and makes a great starter. You could make the patties large and serve as a main course. If you are having people over, make the mix the night before and simply shape them and put in the oven before your guests arrive.
400g can chickpeas, drained
1 small courgette, finely grated
1/8 of a red onion, finely chopped
1 tsp crushed garlic
1 tsp dried mint
1/2 tsp Moroccan seasoning (or 1/4 tsp each of ground cumin and coriander)
juice of 1/4 lemon
salt and freshly ground black pepper
To serve:
Chopped fresh coriander
Good quality fresh tomato salsa
To Make:
1)Heat the oven to 190°c or gas mark 5.
2)Put the chickpeas in a food processor and blend until smooth and paste like.
3)Turn the chickpeas into a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients, then mix well and season to taste.
4)Refrigerate for at least a couple of hours or overnight.
5)Shape into small patties and bake for 20 minutes, turning the patties half way through.
Serve sprinkled with the coriander and the fresh salsa on the side.
