Ingredients

2 cups cauliflower cut into florets
1 red onion chopped
3 cloves garlic peeled and chopped
2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon coriander
¼ cup cilantro, fresh
¼ cup flat leaf parsley
1 cup almond flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper

Falafel Coating

1 ounce hemp seed husks - hulled
1 ounce almond flour

To Cook

3 tablespoons olive oil

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Steam the cauliflower florets for 3-8 minutes until slightly soft
Allow to cool.
Remove any excess water from the cauliflower by squeezing the cauliflower in a nut bag or wring in a dish towel. You want every drop of water out otherwise the burger will be too soggy.
Place the cauliflower in a blender with all the ingredients except the almond flour and pulse until smooth (you can pulse it to be chunky if you wish).
Put the blended mixture in a bowl and add the almond flour a bit at a time, whilst working it though. The almond flour should help bind the mixture so you may not need all of it.
Form patty shapes with the burger mixture. I made 8 but it may vary depending on what size burger you want.
In a shallow dish, mix the hulled hemp seed hears and almond flour for the coating.
Roll the patties in the coating mixture and place on a plate.
Place in the fridge for 1 hour to firm up.
Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the burgers for 3-5 minutes each side, until golden.
