In a mixing bowl, mash the chickpeas together with the oil until no whole chickpeas are left. Add the remaining ingredients and knead for about 3 minutes, until strings of gluten have formed.

Preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile, divide the cutlet dough into four equal parts. To form the cutlets, knead each piece in your hand for a few moments and then flatten and stretch each one into a roughly 6x4 inch rectangular cutlet shape... The easiest way to do this is to first form the cutlets in your hand and then place the cutlets on a clean surface to flatten and stretch them.

Add a moderately thin layer of oil to the bottom of the pan. Place the cutlets in the pan and on each side for 6-7 minutes. Add more oil, if needed, when you flip the cutlets. They're ready when lightly browned and firm to the touch.
