    Yeah, there's definitely something missing from this recipe - there needs to be some sort of a liquid as a binder. used two eggs, but that made them a bit tough.

    Chickpea Fritters With Tzatziki Sauce, Delicious and you won’t believe it’s healthy! Vegans will want to skip the tzatziki (unless you sub soy-based plain yogurt), but to make it properly vegan these are also delicious with chutney and tamarind sauce– and Recipe #396075 I had so much fun making these and I hope they get picked for Veg Swap 16! 😀 Egg-free and if you sub soy yogurt or skip the tzatziki, it’s dairy-free I am also pretty sure that besan is gluten-free but unsure about this claim , Yeah, there’s definitely something missing from this recipe – there needs to be some sort of a liquid as a binder used two eggs, but that made them a bit tough , This is a terrible recipe There is something missing we had to add an egg since our first batch of fritters completely disintegrated while frying The egg, in turn, made these rock hard and ineatible Too bad, they sounded good but find another recipe

    Steps

    1
    Done

    Rinse and Drain the Chickpeas, Then Put Them in a Large Mixing Bowl.

    2
    Done

    Mash Them Up With a Potato Masher! There Should Still Be Some Whole Ones in There.

    3
    Done

    Note: You Can Use a Food Processor This, but Do not Puree. Pulse a Few Times So Some Get Pureed, but Some Whole Ones Remain. Then Pour Into a Large Mixing Bowl. I'd Rather Use the Potato Masher For Authenticity and Since It Ends Up in the Mixing Bowl Anyway, Washing the Potato Masher Is Far Easier Than Washing the Food Processor.

    4
    Done

    Blend the Chickpeas With the Garlic and Tahini.

    5
    Done

    Add All the Spices and Meld Together.

    6
    Done

    Fold in the Flour and Mix Together.

    7
    Done

    Let the Mixture Sit For About 15-20 Minutes.

    8
    Done

    While the Mixture Is Sitting, Make the Tzatziki Sauce: Start by Mixing the Yogurt With the Lemon Juice.

    9
    Done

    Mix in the Spices.

    10
    Done

    Finely Dice the Cucumber (1 Cuke Should Be Enough) Then Add It to the Tzatziki. Voila, It's Done! Now Get Back to the Fritter Mixture.

    11
    Done

    With Your Hands, Form 2" Balls and Flatten Into Discs. There Should Be About 30 or So.

    12
    Done

    Fry in the Olive Oil About 4-5 Minutes on Each Side.

    13
    Done

    Blot on Paper Towels, Serve, and Enjoy!
