Veganomicon Chickpea Cutlets

Submitted by: ~MASJA~


25 Minutes to Prepare and Cook



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 or water
    2 tablespoons soy sauce
    2 cloves garlic, pressed or grated with a Microplane grater
    1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
    1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
    1/2 teaspoon Hungarian paprika
    1/4 teaspoon dried rubbed sage
    Olive oil for pan frying


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.

Incredible! 		I recommend toping these with the mustard sauce listed in the book Veganomicon. Serve with roasted aspargus

Incredible! 		These are great!! I sprayed them with Pam and baked them. Also used a little less olive oil than called for and a little more broth. Doubled it and made 10. For sauce -- try the Veganomicon red wine roux! I put it on here, just search for it. It's fantastic.

Incredible! 		Yum. I've modified the original recipe by cutting the amount of olive oil and substituting it with unsweetened applesauce. (Tomato paste and unsweetened pumpkin work, too.) I spray the baking dish and patties with a canola oil cooking spray.

Incredible! 		I've made these with half the olive oil mixed into the cutlets, and just a spray in the pan for cooking. It's a great recipe. Lots of great recipes in the Veganomican cookbook! Check it out....

Incredible! 		I made these for Christmas dinner. My dad liked them, but thought they needed some gravy or sauce. I liked them. I don't know if anyone else tried them. But they are good.
