These vegan spiced chickpea patties taste like crab cakes, they are very easy to make and the best thing is that you can eat them as lunch, appetizers, as the main dish, in hamburgers buns, or on top of a salad.
WHY ARE YOU GOING TO LIKE these vegan CHICKPEA patties?
If you are having a party you can prepare mini chickpea patties (or you can tell your guests they are called vegan crab cakes) and serve them on a platter. You can serve them as a starter in summer dinner with summer drinks, as a snack, or on top of a green salad, or even as a hamburger pattie.
Don’t you love these types of recipes that can be served ALL year round and everyone likes them? Besides, above all, they are super healthy, vegan, delicious, and free of many allergens. They have no eggs, no dairy, and no shellfish. But what they do have and is tons of FLAVOR, the chickpea pattie, and the prepared mayonnaise on top.
INGREDIENTS TO MAKE VEGAN CAKES
- SPECIAL MIX OF SPICES. Spices always have that magical touch of flavor and freshness that gives that extra boost of flavor to everything they touch. I know I always say the same thing, but can you imagine Mexican food without oregano or cumin? Or Italian food without basil?
- Chickpeas. You can use canned chickpeas or the chickpea that you cook at home. This recipe is perfect for when the chickpeas are overcooked, super soft and lose their shape.
- Potato, any type of potato works well here. You just have to cook it properly, in salted water and until really soft.
- Dijon
- Mayonnaise, you can use the vegan mayonnaise that you want (the one I like the most is Vegenaise), homemade or normal mayonnaise.
- Special sauce. This is made with the mix of spices that you prepare, mayonnaise, celery and onion. It really is super super delicious.
🔥TIP Keep the liquid in which you cooked the chickpeas or the liquid from the canned ones. This magic liquid is called aquafaba and you can make amazing recipes, like this Pavlova.
HOW TO MAKE VEGAN chickpea patties?
In a small bowl add all the ingredients for the spice mix. Set aside.
Combine potatoes, chickpeas, and the rest of the ingredients in a medium bowl. Mix well and with the back of the spoon, mash the potatoes and chickpeas. You must have a well-incorporated mixture.
With your hands, form the pancakes and cook in a hot pan with a tablespoon of oil. Let them brown on one side and then flip them to brown the other side.
To make the sauce, mix the ingredients in a small bowl. Check the seasoning and adjust if necessary.
To serve, put a little sauce on each pancake and finish with chopped parsley.
