Treat your ingredients with care...

• Chickpeas — Make sure to thoroughly mash the chickpeas to achieve the desired texture for the patties.
• Flaxseed meal — If you don't have flaxseed meal, you can grind whole flaxseeds in a blender or coffee grinder until they form a fine powder.
• Sesame seeds — Toasting the sesame seeds before adding them to the mixture will enhance their flavor.

• For added flavor, you can incorporate finely chopped onions or grated carrots into the mixture.
• If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili flakes to the mixture.
• Serve the Vegetarian Frøsnapper with a side of creamy dill sauce or tangy lemon aioli for a delightful flavor combination.
