    2. In a food processor, grind the chips into breadcrumbs and place in a deep plate.
    3. In the same food processor, grind all other burger ingredients except the buns and toppings to obtain a smooth paste. Add breadcrumbs if necessary if the mixture is too liquid or add an egg if the mixture is too dry.
    4. Form patties about 1/3 cup in size and coat with chip crumbs. Place on a nonstick or parchment-lined baking sheet.
