How to make chickpea-carrot patties?

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and prepare the cutlet mixture. To do this, wash, peel and chop the carrot, onion and garlic cloves and place in a food processor. Then drain and rinse the chickpeas under running water and place them in the food processor with the vegetables. Sprinkle in the oatmeal, seasonings and tomato paste and lemon juice.
