Instructions
Combine all the burger ingredients into a food processor (or mash with a potato masher) and process until smooth. Divide burger mixture into 6 patties. Let sit in fridge for 1 hour as it helps the burgers to solidify.
Cook on a greased fry pan on medium heat for 5 minutes each side or until outside is nicely golden.
