Falafel waffles

For fans of ori­en­tal fal­a­fel, the­se waf­f­les are a real tre­at. The­re is no deep-fry­ing in oil; ins­tead, the dough is fried fat-free in a non-stick cera­mic waff­le iron, ser­ved with a deli­cious cau­li­flower sauce. 

Ingre­di­ents for 2–3 servings: 

  • 500 g pota­toes, diced
  • 125 g coo­ked Chick­peas
  • 3 tbsp Chick­pea flour
  • 10g fresh pars­ley and/or cori­an­der lea­ves, rough­ly chop­ped, plus more for serving
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp ground cori­an­der
  • 1 teas­poon Gar­lic powder
  • 1 teas­poon fresh­ly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 teas­poon map­le syrup
  • 150g coar­se­ly chop­ped cher­ry toma­toes and/or cucum­ber sli­ces, for serving
  • 1/2 tsp hot pep­per flakes or Chi­li flakes (optio­nal), for serving

For the cau­li­flower sauce: 

  • 200 g cau­li­flower florets
  • 1 teas­poon Gar­lic powder
  • 1 teas­poon Oni­on powder
  • 1/4 tsp Papri­ka powder
  • 1 tbsp fresh­ly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tab­les­poon water or 3 tab­les­poons uns­weeten­ed almond or coco­nut milk, more if needed.

Pre­pa­ra­ti­on:

Steam the pota­toes in a pot with a steam­er insert for 15 to 20 minu­tes until soft. Then let it cool com­ple­te­ly.
In a lar­ge bowl, mash the pota­toes with a pota­to mas­her along with the chick­peas, chick­pea flour, pars­ley or cil­an­tro, cumin, cori­an­der, gar­lic pow­der, lemon juice and map­le syrup. Ever­y­thing should be well mixed and free of lumps.
A Non-stick cera­mic waff­le iron pre­heat. Pour the puree into the bot­tom of the waff­le iron and make sure it is even­ly dis­tri­bu­ted. Bake the waff­le for 10 to 15 minu­tes until cris­py. Repeat the pro­cess with the remai­ning puree.
To make the sau­ce, steam the cau­li­flower just like the pota­toes until soft, about 4 to 8 minu­tes. In a food pro­ces­sor or blen­der, puree the cau­li­flower along with the gar­lic pow­der, oni­on pow­der, papri­ka, lemon juice, and water or almond or coco­nut milk until smooth. Ser­ve the waf­f­les hot with the sau­ce, cher­ry toma­toes, cucum­ber, red chi­li flakes (if using) and fresh cilantro.

Bon appe­tit!
