Add lentils and mix and smash until partly mashed but with lots of whole lentils still remaining. Add flour and vigorously stir until mixture holds together when squeezed in your hand; if it doesn't, continue to mash until it does, adding another 1-2 Tbsp. flour if needed. Form into 6 patties about ¾" thick.
• Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large nonstick skillet (patties will stick to a regular skillet) over medium. Cook 3 patties until deeply browned and crisp underneath, about 3 minutes. Carefully turn over; cook, adding more oil as needed to maintain a light coating around patties, until deeply browned and crisp on the other side, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining patties and 1 Tbsp. oil.
