Here’s what you’ll need

  • 1/2 cup* chickpea flour
  • 1 tbsp tapioca flour or cornstarch
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp Kala namak/Himalayan black salt (or replace it with the salt you have, but it does make a difference)
  • 1/4 tsp cumin powder
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 3/4 cup water
  • Parsley and/or spring onions to taste
  • 8 cherry tomatoes, cut into wedges
  • Your leftovers! This time I used 1/2 cup of bulgur and about 1/3 cup of peas, but I also tried brown rice, mushrooms, and some veggies.

Here’s what to do

  • Mix all dry ingredients
  • Add the water and stir with a fork to obtain a homogeneous mixture, without any lumps
  • Add your herbs, tomatoes, and leftovers, mixing to combine.
  • Pop the mixture into a preheated, non-stick pan with a little oil.
  • Cover and cook over medium heat until you see that the top has dried up, then flip the dough with the help of a plate and cook the other side over low heat, covering again, for about 5 minutes.

Writing this book has been a very exciting experience to take on, and it is the result of spending years experimenting with healthy food choices over the years.

I’ve been a vegan for over 2 years now and it took me a while to get used to eating a whole, food plant-based diet and the tasty recipes that you will find in this book. But now brands like Tofurkey, Gardein, Beyond Meat, Tofutti, and so many more came out with meat substitutes that can make cooking a lot more fun, tasty, and quick!

In this book, you will find the total estimated macronutrient for each recipe. What are macronutrients? Macronutrients are nutrients required in large amounts, for example, protein, carbohydrates, and fats.

Macronutrients are essential in our diet because each macro plays a vital part in the human diet, especially for muscle building and weight loss. Switching to a whole food, Plant-based Vegan Diet was the best choice I made and I hope the recipes found in his book will help you perform better, recover faster, and feel great!
