Alkaline Vegan Chickpea Omelette with Walnut meat filling!

Hey Vida Holistic Family! I'm super excited to share this delicious recipe with you! When I first tried a chickpea omelette when visiting Miami in a vegan restaurant a couple years ago, I was blown away!! I knew I had to make an effort to recreate it. And not only did I succeed, but I made it better! But I would love your opinion! Let me know what you think when you make it!



Alkaline Vegan Chickpea Omelette

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Total Time 15 minutes




Ingredients For Chickpea Batter

  • 1 cups chickpea flour

  • 3 tablespoons ground flax seed

  • 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt if desired

  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric

  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

  • 1/2 cilantro


Ingredients for Filling

  • 1/2 chopped and soaked walnuts

  • Half chopped green peppers

  • 1/2 cup chopped green onions

  • Half chopped tomato


Instructions


  • Mix all ingredients thoroughly. You can store in refrigerator in tightly sealed container for later!

  • For individual serving: Stir mix before each use. Mix 1/3 cup of chickpea batter mixture with 1/3 cup water. Stir well and allow to stand for a few minutes to thicken. If the batter seems too thick (thicker than pancake batter), add water a little at a time until thinned. If the batter looks watery, add more mixture until pancake like consistency.

  • Heat a well oiled pan (I used avocado oil) or non stick pan pan over medium-high heat. Pour the batter on the pan, and move it around so it covers the entire pan evenly like a pancake. Cover the pan and cook until light to medium golden (lift a corner with a spatula to check). Flip over and cook the other side. Make sure that the center isn’t uncooked.

  • Meanwhile, you can also start prepping the filling. Chop half a tomato, half green pepper, and 1/2 cup green onions. Once done, place on a separate pan to cook on low-med heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.

  • Once filling is at desired consistency, place omelette on a plate and pour filling on top.

  • Top with cilantro, hot sauce, and any other sauces of your choice you make like!

Enjoy!
