Crispy Golden Lentil Schnitzel Patties (Better Than Meat!)

Cook the Lentils: Rinse yellow lentils and place them in a pot with 450 ml water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until tender (about 15–20 minutes). Drain any excess water and let cool slightly.

Prep the Zucchini: Grate the zucchini, sprinkle with salt, and let sit for 10 minutes. Then squeeze out the excess moisture using a clean towel.

Mix the Base: In a large bowl, combine cooked lentils, grated zucchini, chopped onion, minced garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, and olive paste.

Add Seasonings & Flour: Stir in the gluten-free flour, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and additional salt. Mix until a thick, sticky batter forms.

Shape the Patties: Scoop out portions of the mixture and form into schnitzel-style patties.

Fry to Perfection: Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the patties on both sides until golden brown and crisp (about 3–4 minutes per side).

Drain & Serve: Place fried patties on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
