2 x 400g tins chickpeas , drained

2 garlic cloves

½ a small bunch spring onions

1 tsp salt flakes

2 tbsp plain flour

Method

Put the first 9 ingredients in a food processor and whizz until broken down. Tip into a bowl, mix in the halloumi, and form into 6 burgers. You can either cook these in a frying pan with a little olive oil until golden or BBQ for 2-3 minutes each side (just brush with oil beforehand to stop them sticking).
