Instructions
- 1
Spread the drained chickpeas on a clean kitchen towel or paper towels and pat thoroughly dry — the drier they are, the better the patties will hold together.
- 2
Transfer the chickpeas to a large mixing bowl and mash with a potato masher or fork until mostly smooth with some texture remaining — a few whole chickpeas are fine, but the mixture should hold together when pressed.
