Making patties

- Slice and cook the mushrooms in a frying pan with a little bit of olive oil until soft and juicy.
- Place cooked chickpeas, mushrooms, garlic and firm tofu in the food processor, and blend until it turns into a rough paste.
- Transfer this mixture to a big bowl and add cooked mung beans and the rest of the spice and herbs. Add tapioca flour. * Tapioca flour helps to combine the patty together.
- Shape into 4-6 patties, between 1.5 – 1.8 cm thick.
- Heat 2-3 tbsp. of olive oil on the stove over medium to medium-high heat and cook until it turns to a deep, golden brown colour and is crispy. 4 minutes one side and then flip and cook for 4 minutes on the other side.
Assemble
