Falafel patties with black beans and quinoa (gf)

Falafel – my eternal love. Just recently, when we were in the Zillertal my brother started with his cravings for falafel. It would be so delicious now, a Falafel sandwich with lactic pickled vegetables from the Arab. It stuck in my mind so much that I got to work on it right away at home. This time, however, I didn’t want the classic falafel balls, but something in the form of a patty. Since I still have so many black beans in the cupboard, they were used up right away. The result is a really delicious, tasty dish that you can prepare super well. How to do it? More about this further down in the text.

Big Shoutout to Vegan Falafel

Falafel patties with black beans and quinoa

Right at the beginning, here’s a tip on how you can best prepare things and save a lot of time. The first thing I always do on Sunday, I a larger portion Quinoa or Rice precooked. Right now I’m more on my quinoa kick, so there’s always a bowl in my fridge with Quinoa , at which I help myself throughout the week. For this dish, too, you need the pseudo-cereal and if that is already waiting for you at home, all the better. You can also prepare the dough for the patties the night before and put it in the fridge. The next day, simply preheat oven, portion and off it goes into the oven for 20 minutes. Ready!

Advanced construction art – a falafel sandwich

What exactly comes now in the dough? Quinoa, black beans, sunflower seeds, oatmeal, garlic (or garlic granules), sea salt, pepper, cumin, coriander, Tomato paste, tamari, chili and nutritional yeast. Since we bake the patties in the oven, this saves a lot of oil.

You can serve it in two different ways. On a bed of lettuce with fresh cherry tomatoes and a tasty Tahini sauce . That would be the low carb, low calorie version, so to speak.

But the highest art is a delicious falafel Sandwich which requires some skill. All kidding aside, my husband is really a top sandwich farmer and put together a delicious falafel sandwich. For this you need a pita bread, tahini sauce, harissa, lettuce, cherry tomatoes, lactic fermented vegetables and the falafel patties. This is all pressed one by one into the pita bread and voilà, your sandwich is ready.
