Wash the red lentils and cook them until soft. 2. Finely chop the onion, garlic, and parsley. 3. Mix the cooked lentils with the vegetables, spices, and flour/breadcrumbs. 4. Let the mixture rest for a few minutes so it becomes easier to shape. 5. Place the mixture on plastic wrap. 6. Use a jar lid to press and shape the patties into perfect round, thin forms. 7.
