Here is how you make Chick Pea Pattie of Yumminess w/ Sauce by Zwie:

Preset Broiler to high while mixing ingredients. Combine 2 cans drained Chick Peas, celery bits (or parsley), chili powder, curry powder, cumin and softly mash the mixture. You can can do this by using a drinking glass if you do not own a potato masher. Once the mixture is mashed stir in 1 egg and 2 tbsp of Panko Bread Crumbs (the kind with jalapeno makes it super awesome but in this one I used Italian). Ball the mixture into patties, I usually get about 5 and dredge them through the remaining crumbs to get a good coating. Place patties on a lightly greased cooking sheet and place under the broiler for 5-7 minutes on each side or until brown and crispy. Now it's time to mix the sauce!Place 1/3c Ricotta Cheese (you can use skim but I used whole), 2 tbsp greek or plain yogurt, 1 small onion (your choice of color), and a cumber or some pepper if you'd like into a blender or food processor and blend into a medium thick sauce. Place sauce on top of patties when served. My husband likes them on hamburger buns, I go sans bread but could see the advantage. Also, I think I may try some diced tomato on top next time. Play around and make it yours. Enjoy!Number of Servings: 5Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user ZWIELICHT.
