I made the Chickpea Cutlets from Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Terry Hope Romero's Veganomicon last night. I was pretty pleased with myself, because 95% of the time, the first time I try out a new recipe, it usually ends in disaster (such as the tamales I made Sunday night from the same cookbook). However, the cutlets turned out pretty swell. I guess the best comparison I can make would be to say they tasted a lot like veggie chicken nuggets. Only better. I served them up with some mashed potatoes made with Earth Balance and light soy milk. I think next time I might try sauteeing some onions and throwing them on top.
I have some pictures, but have yet to upload them, so shall do so soon.
And for anyone who is Vegan or Vegan-ish and hasn't heard of Moskowitz and Romero, because they have clearly been living under a rock, check out The Post Punk Kitchen ASAP! I'm pretty much obsessed with the website and have collected all the cookbooks that these ladies have written. OMG!

Chickpea Cutlets are such a great standby... and still my favorite use of wheat gluten!

ReplyDeleteYeah, LOVE those cutlets! Try them with the mustard sauce in Veganomicon... absolutely fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThese are great piccata style too: lemon, capers, white wine, and shallots.
