Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

2 c Dried red lentils 1 lg Onion; finely chopped
-Water, to cook 2 Garlic cloves; minced
1 c Bread crumbs - more to taste
- (preferably wholewheat) Salt pepper to taste

Wash lentils thoroughly pick out any sticks stones grit which might
get in them. In a large pot, bring the water to a rolling boil. Add
lentils cook for 20-25 minutes until the lentils start to puree. Drain
let cool. It is not necessary to let them get cold.

Transfer the cooked lentils to a large mixing bowl. Add bread crumbs,
garlic onion mix thoroughly. Season well.

You then can experiment with herbs spices. I usually add loads of cajun
spice, with healthy measures of parsley, basil majoram. You could try
thyme or sage. It is your choice.

If the mixture does not hold together well enough, add more bread crumbs.
Form into patties then cook as you would a regular hamburger in a little
oil. Or barbecue. If they are really dry, then they hold together well
enough to barbecue.

Serve in buns with old fashioned dijon mustard chips ooops, errrr fries.
