Making a gluten-free "red meat" patty from powders
I have a very small kitchen unfit for rich cooking and I reside in a state in which red meat substitutes are generally very expensive due to currently low demand in the local market.
Say I have some finally chopped onion seasoned with some black pepper, nutmeg, coriander powder, cumin, paprika and salt (fit for kebab/burger) and I want to make a no-gluten red meat patty form it,
Which flours or other dry powders should I try to pour into that mixture to make a "red meat" patty fit for kebab/burger?

Oats
You can get regular oats and grind them up in a food processor. If the issue is "general" then any brand of oats should be fine. If you have a highly allergic (or similar) situation where the tiniest bit of gluten poses a problem then make sure the package states that it is gluten free and doesn't say "May contain wheat" or similar warnings.

What you've got is a set of flavors and a desire for a certain texture. That texture should be supplied by something which provides protein as well as body.
The classic non-meat patties are made of:
lentils chickpeas (garbanzos, ceci) beans (including soybeans (edamame) nuts root vegetables (including potatoes, turnips, yams, tapioca) stalk vegetables (brassicas, mostly) and grains
None of these contain gluten except grains; the grains that have gluten for the purposes of celiac disease are wheat, barley and rye. If you have some other kind of gluten intolerance you should specify that.
There are an infinite number of recipes, and any vegetarian cookbook should have several suggestions.
