• Chickpea flour - 100 grams
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Onion - 1 small, finely chopped

• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Paprika - 1/2 teaspoon
• Whole wheat burger buns - 2

Steps

1. Grate the zucchini and place it in a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out excess moisture.
