Ingredients

Wet Ingredients
  • 1/2 small cauliflower head, florets
  • 1 can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 2 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
Dry Ingredients
  • 1/2 heaped cup chickpea flour
  • 1 1/2 tbsp ground flax seeds
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Coconut oil or neutral oil for frying

Method

  1. Cook cauliflower florets in salted water until tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Drain well.
  2. Mix chickpea flour, flax, onion powder, cumin, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  3. Pulse cauliflower, chickpeas, parsley, and garlic in a food processor until combined but still textured, not pasty.
  4. Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and combine by hand.
  5. Form 8 to 10 patties. If the mix is too dry, add a little chickpea liquid; if too wet, add a little more flour.
  6. Pan-fry in a lightly oiled skillet about 5 minutes per side until golden brown.
