Great flavor. Following the advice of the previous reviewer, I added salt, and pepper. I used about 2 T minced shallots in place on the onion, and ground my own cumin seeds (a bigger punch).

I like vegetarian burgers, and tend to keep garden burgers in my freezer. Other recipes I've tried fall apart upon cooking. These really held together, and form a very decent patty. Definitely worth repeating.
