Ready In
- Pulse lentils in a food processor until coarsely ground; transfer to a large mixing bowl.
- Mix onion, egg, bell pepper, and bread crumbs with the lentils; add mozzarella cheese, garlic, salt, and pepper to the lentils and mix.
- Divide the mixture into four equally sized portions, roll into balls, and flatten into patties.
- Spread cornmeal into a wide, shallow bowl. Dredge patties in cornmeal to coat.
- Heat olive oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Cook patties in skillet until browned, about 5 minutes per side.
Footnotes
- Cook's Notes:
- This recipe was adapted from Butter Bean Burgers, as submitted by Allrecipes user SILVERWOLF.
- You may also deep-fry them in 1/4 cup of oil, however I prefer them crispier.
- You can mash the lentils by hand rather than use a food processor, just be careful to maintain a coarse texture.
- Tip
- Aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.

Tried to follow to the letter, but I didn't have bell pepper, so substituted some sautéed mushrooms and carrots; also sautéed the onions. Probably should have squeezed out the lentils and veggie...

Better than expected although I might as well have made a new recipe. I didn't know how many lentils to use for 2.5 cups cooked, so I used way too much and doubled the recipe. I accidentally ad...

Really drain the lentils. I added garlic and a bunch of seasonings to it as well. Very delicious. My Aunt's bf asked what kind of meat was in it!

I was concerned about the cornmeal, but it was a good idea as it added texture and crispness to the patty. As others have mentioned, I altered my take on the recipe and added curry powder, shred...

Really good - we've tried these grilled, fried and baked, and definitely prefer grilled. I skip the cornmeal, and do freeze the leftovers for a quick lunch later! Will skip the peppers next time...
