Directions
In a blender, finely chop celery, onion, scallion and garlic or dice them by hand finely.
Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the barley, chick peas, oatmeal, salt, paprika, basil, soy sauce and pepper.
Mix them thoroughly with a wooden spoon or with your hands.
Add the chopped celery, onion, scallion and garlic to the barley mixture and mix again.
Shape into six burgers.
Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet.
Add burgers and brown 5 to 7 minutes on each side, or bake the patties at 350℉ (180℃) on a lightly oiled cookie sheet for 25 minutes.
Serve on a hamburger bun with sprouts and tomato slices or ketchup.
