Honey Tips
Honey Is Magic
In the days before biology and botany were understood, people thought it was a special kind of magic that turned flower nectar into honey.
Directions
In a small saucepan, bring lentils and water to boil. Reduce heat, partially cover and simmer for 25 minutes until all liquid is absorbed. Place lentils in a bowl. Add vinegar and mash thoroughly. Set aside.
In a medium-size skillet, heat oil. Sauté onions over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Mix in next 5 ingredients. Continue to sauté until vegetables are tender, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Combine lentils, vegetable mixture, and bread crumbs. Blend well. Chill mixture for 1 hour before forming burgers.
When ready to cook, shape into 4-inch burgers. Heat small amount of oil in skillet. Sauté burgers until heated through and crusty on the outside, or, if preferred, broil for 5 to 8 minutes on each side.
Serves: 4-6
