Ingredients

FOR THE CHICKPEA MIXTURE:

  • 1 c Chickpeas drained and rinsed
  • 3 tbsp Tapioca or Potato Starch
  • 4 tbsp All Purpose Flour
  • 1-1/2 tsp Italian Seasoning or, to taste
  • 1/3 c Onion
  • Salt to taste

FOR BREADING:

  • 1-1/2 tbsp Ground Flax PLUS 4-1/2 tbsp WATER
  • Breadcrumbs

OIL FOR PAN FRYING

    FOR SERVING:

    • Tomato Sauce
    • Broccoli, Potato or other vegetables
    • Vegan Mozzarella style shreds

    Instructions

    • In the bowl of a food processor, add all of the ingredients and pulse until it forms a ball.  It should be sticky, but manageable.  If it seems too wet, add more flour.
    • Preheat a large non stick saute pan over medium high heat.
    • Create a dredging station and form the patties, then place into the flax "egg" mixture and finally, into breadcrumbs.  Avoid over handling and proceed directly to the pan for frying.
    • Cook on the first side until golden.  Flip once and repeat.  They will firm up as they cook and after they are removed from the pan.
    • Serve with tomato sauce, vegan mozzarella shreds and a side of baked potato and/or broccoli florets.
