Holidays are a low key affair with me, and despite the fact that they're often an opportunity to rejoice with more difficult food spreads, I really need no excuse to fuss around within the kitchen for hours to create particular and special meals. This beyond weekend become Thanksgiving in Canada and I went with something smooth, who prefer no longer to spend an excessive amount of time cooking, but as humble as these little burgers might sound, they may be in reality an super manner to rejoice pumpkin season with the business enterprise of buddies. Just due to the fact.
Packed complete of protein, those spicy patties with a moist and meaty texture are a great vegetarian alternative when the craving for a "burger" hits. Chickpeas provide the base and the addition of quinoa and tahini provides a nice undertone of nuttiness to accompany the sweet pumpkin. The mingling of flavors is difficult to resist, as is the perfume that fills the kitchen at the same time as they are baking, and an enjoy your palate won't soon forget about. Yes, they're that desirable.
I served them up with tomato chutney and a yogurt tahini lemon sauce and some mini naan breads. Eat them as burgers between bread or just as they are with chutneys and sauces and a facet serving of greens to fill out the meal.
Note: Roasting the pumpkin brings out the natural sweetness, but if you don't want to roast it, cook according to your preference. Make sure to save the seeds for roasting later as they make for a delicious and healthy snack.
There is not any cause in any respect to restrict your intake of pumpkin to only a few months of the year. Instead of counting on canned pumpkin pur?E, keep in mind taking benefit of the harvest and freeze small bags of roasted pumpkin for future use.
