If you are looking for high-protein snacks, these sprouted brown peas fritters are one of the best options to try this time. Similar to falafel, these are vegan and gluten-free.
These are similar to falafel, besides a few ingredient variations we use here. Sprouted brown peas fritters are one of the healthier alternatives to the regular fritters. Though it's deep fried, the brown peas are so rich in protein and fiber it will add more benefits. You can also bake them as mini crepes or make shallow-fried pancakes.
How to make sprouts?
To make sprouts, you must soak the chickpeas for 6 - 8 hrs. After soaking them for enough time, preferably overnight, remove them from the water and pat them dry with a dry kitchen towel. Wrapping it with dry napkins or even paper is good. Please keep it in a dry, humid place to germinate and get sprouted. However, this process is time-consuming and takes more than 24 - 30 hours to get the sprouts, depending on the weather.
Sprouted Brown Chickpeas Fritters
Once you have the sprouted chickpeas, this process is simple, too. It's as simple as making other fritters. This recipe is quite similar to the falafel we make.
Instructions
Take sprouted chickpeas and blend them roughly to a coarse paste. Transfer to a large mixing bowl, adding finely chopped onion and minced garlic. Add gram flour to achieve that perfect consistency. Then, add all spices and mix well. Prepare a thick consistency batter. Whisk it with a whisker or a spoon to make it airy and soft.
Heat oil in a pan and drop a small lemon-sized batter into the hot oil. You can also make patty and pan fry or deep fry them. Fry on medium to high flame. Remove from oil when they turn golden and crispy. Serve hot with green coriander chutney or tomato ketchup.
