Instructions

In a medium bowl, combine the cooked brown lentils, grated carrot, minced red onion, cumin, coriander, and flour. Mash everything together with a fork until it forms a cohesive mixture. If it feels too wet, add another pinch of flour.

Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each into a small, flat patty. Heat 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil shimmers, carefully place the patties in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and heated through. You're looking for a nice crust to form on both sides.

While the patties are cooking, prepare the sauce. In a small bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, chopped fresh mint, and lemon juice. Season with a tiny pinch of salt if desired.

To serve, place the two lentil patties on a plate. Dollop the minted yogurt sauce over the patties or serve it on the side. Garnish with a few extra mint leaves for a fresh finish.
