Preparation

  • Form the mixture into patties.

Cooking

  • Preheat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil or cooking spray.
  • Cook patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Alternatively, bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or air-fry at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Serving

Notes

To store leftovers, place them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze with parchment paper between each patty. For extra flavor, add herbs or cayenne pepper. Avoid overmixing the ingredients.
