A combination of chickpeas and vital wheat gluten formed into savory cutlets. Ingredients:
1 cup cooked chickpeas |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 cup vital wheat gluten |
1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs |
1/4 cup vegetable broth |
2 tablespoons soy sauce |
2 cloves garlic |
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
1/2 teaspoon paprika |
1/4 teaspoon sage |
4 tsp olive oil |
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl, mash the chickpeas together with the oil until no chickpeas are left. Add the remaining ingredients and knead together for about 3 minutes, until strings of gluten have formed.
2. Preheat a large heavy-bottomed nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile, divide the cutlet dough into 4 equal pieces. To form cutlets, knead each piece in your hand for a few moments and then flatten and stretch each one into a roughly 6 by 4 inch rectangular cutlet shape. The easiest way to do this is to form a rectangle shape in your hands and then place the cutlets on a clean surface to flatten and stretch them.
3. Add a moderately thin layer of olive oil to the bottom of the pan. Place the cutlets in the pan and cook on each side for 6 to 7 minutes. Add more oil, if needed, when you flip the cutlets. They?re ready when lightly browned and firm to the touch.
