Combine 1 package of Pea Soup mix (360g) with 3 cups of water in the bowl of an instant pot or other electronic pressure cooker.
Seal pot and set timer for 45 minutes.
After cooking time, allow pot to depressurize naturally.
Open pot and stir beans for 15 -30 seconds.
Drain any excess water once peas are done cooking and are tender.
Place into a food processor with all of the other ingredients except the flour and vegetable oil.
Pulse to coarsely grind the mixture.
Transfer to a mixing bowl and chill in the fridge for at least 15-20 min.
Taste and adjust the salt.
If the mixture is too wet to form patties, add a bit of the flour at a time, mixing gently to combine.
Form patties into balls and gently press flat. *optional: coat the patty in breadcrumbs for a crispier crust.
Pan fry over medium-high heat with a bit of oil for 3-4 minutes per side.
Place into burger buns, add toppings as desired and serve.
