Fry onion and garlic in 15ml oil for 5 minutes until softened.

Pulse in remaining chickpeas and nuts until broken down but textured.

Divide into 8 portions and flatten into 1.5cm thick burgers.

Fry burgers in batches for 4 minutes per side until crisp and golden-brown.

Serve in pitta bread with salad, yoghurt, and chilli sauce.
