Ingredients
  

  • 340 g chickpeas drained ( 1 can of 19 oz) - reserve some aquafaba
  • 1 clove garlic
  • Handful of fresh parsley
  • 3 tbsp aquafaba chickpea water
  • 110 chickpea flour almost 1 cup
  • 1/4 tsp paprika or preferred spices
  • Black pepper and salt
  • Breadcrumbs for coating
  • Oil for frying

Method
 

  1. In a blender or mixer, combine the drained chickpeas, garlic, parsley, aquafaba, chickpea flour, salt, and spices. Blend until the mixture is smooth yet moldable. If your blender isn’t very powerful, start by blending all the ingredients except the chickpea flour, then gradually add it until you reach the desired consistency.
  2. Scoop out portions of the mixture and shape them into small thin patties.
  3. Roll each patty in breadcrumbs until fully coated.
  4. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the patties for about 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Serve warm with a sprinkle of extra salt, side of mayo or your favorite dipping sauce. Enjoy.
