    1. This burger has an intriguing flavor. Serve it as a sandwich or possibly as a pattie with the cucumber sauce.

    3. In a small saucepan with a lid, bring water to a boil and add in the bulgur and lemon juice. Cover and turn heat down; simmer for 5 - 6 minutes. Check to see if bulgur is tender to the bite and all water is absorbed. Set aside with the lid on to continue steaming.
    4. Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add in the green onion, pistachios, cumin, coriander, salt, cayenne, and garlic; saute/fry 2 minutes or possibly till green onions are tender. Remove from heat and add in the parsley and tahini.
    5. Place garbanzo beans in a food processor; process till grnd. In a large bowl combine garbanzos, green onion mix, and bulgur; toss. Add in the flour and beaten Large eggs; stir to combine well. Divide mix into 6 equal portions, shaping into 3" patties.
    6. Oil a vegetable basket or possibly a pizza warming pan; grill the burgers 3 - 5 minutes on each side or possibly till browned. Brush hamburger buns with extra virgin olive oil and place on the warming rack of the grill or possibly to the side where heat is lower.
