Mash chickpeas, mix them with grated beet and vegetables, then add seasoning and a binder until the mixture holds together. Shape into patties and bake or pan-cook until browned and firm. Chilling the shaped patties before cooking can help them stay intact.
A beet chickpea vegetable patty tastes earthy and mildly sweet from the beet, with a nutty, savory flavor from the chickpeas and spices. Its texture is soft inside and can be crisp outside when baked or pan-cooked until browned.
Yes, canned chickpeas work well in a beet chickpea vegetable patty. Drain and rinse them, then dry them thoroughly so their extra moisture does not make the mixture loose. Mash them before mixing with the beet and other ingredients.
Make sure the beet chickpea vegetable patty mixture is not wet, mash the chickpeas well, and add a binder such as oats or breadcrumbs. Chill the formed patties before cooking, and wait until one side is browned before turning them.
Cooked or sautéed beet is the easiest choice because it becomes tender and blends into the patty mixture. Raw grated beet can also work, but squeeze out excess liquid first; otherwise, the mixture may be too wet to shape and cook evenly.
Baking is convenient when you want to cook a batch with less added oil, while pan-frying gives the beet chickpea vegetable patty a more browned exterior. In either case, handle the patties gently and cook until firm before moving or flipping them.
A lemon-tahini sauce or garlic plant-based yogurt sauce pairs well with a beet chickpea vegetable patty. The tangy sauce balances the beet’s earthy sweetness, and both options work in a grain bowl, wrap, or sandwich.
Yes, cooked beet chickpea vegetable patties freeze well. Cool them completely, separate them with parchment, and store them in a sealed freezer-safe container. Reheat from thawed in an oven or skillet so the outside firms up again.
A cooked beet chickpea vegetable patty keeps for up to three days in a sealed container in the refrigerator. Reheat it until hot throughout, using an oven or skillet to restore some of its browned texture.
A beet chickpea vegetable patty includes beet, which gives it a sweeter, earthier flavor and a vivid color. Falafel is usually centered on chickpeas or fava beans with herbs and spices, and is commonly shaped and fried without beet.

A beet chickpea vegetable patty is a plant-based patty made by mashing chickpeas with beetroot and other vegetables, then shaping and cooking the mixture. It is a contemporary meat-free option rather than a dish tied to one specific culinary tradition; recipes may cook the patties in a pan or in the oven.
Beetroot lends a gentle sweetness, while chickpeas make the texture soft and substantial. Serve one in a bun, alongside a grain bowl, or with salad and a lemony tahini sauce. It provides fibre and plant protein, with 5.7 g of fibre per 100 g. For a lighter meal, bake the patties and pair them with plenty of fresh greens.
