Boil with lid on until tender. Drain and set aside.<\/li>\n<li>Add some olive oil to a large pot and saute onion until tender. Add garlic and celery and saute for a few minutes. Add mushrooms and saute until tender. Add more oil if needed.<\/li>\n<li>Add crushed tomatoes, vegetable stock cubes, curry powder, cumin, jalapenos and chilli flakes. Mix well before adding the cooked lentils and mixing again. Add some soy sauce &#8211; 2 tbsp. or so, just enough to change the fragrance of the mixture. Cover with a lid and simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavours to mix.<\/li>\n<li>Remove from the heat. Add in some oats and mix them in well. Keep adding oats until the mixture becomes thicker &#8211; not too dry and not too moist &#8211; the oats will soak up more liquid as they cook. Let the mixture sit for at least 30 minutes. If the mixture isn&#8217;t thick enough, add some more oats. It should just be able to hold itself together in a ball or patty.<\/li>\n<li>Once cooled, prepare a baking sheet lined with wax paper (and extra sheets on hand). Take a small handful of mixture and form it into patties and place onto the lined baking sheet. Place a sheet of wax paper between each layer of patties. Placing two sheets of paper between layers helps prevent them from sticking together.<\/li>\n<li>Place the patties in the freezer overnight. Next day, separate the patties and place them in a large freezer bag.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These patties are delicious, contain whole proteins.
