Lotus Vegan Meatballs
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
• ½ cup Lotus Organic Besan Flour
• ¼ cup Lotus Organic Sunflower Kernels
• ½ tsp fennel seed
• ¼ tsp paprika
• Pinch of chilli flakes
• ½ teaspoon oregano
• ½ teaspoon sage
• ½ tsp Lotus Fine Sea Salt
• ½ teaspoon cracked black pepper
• 2 tablespoon Lotus Savoury Yeast Flakes
• ½ onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic
• 2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• Handful of fresh dill or basil
• Sprinkle of cashew nuts
• ¼ cup of water (as needed)
Method:
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Put all of the ingredients and half the water in a food processor or blender. Pulse until smooth, but still a little rough. If the batter is too thick to process, add more water as needed. Form the batter into balls with wet hands, and place them evenly on baking sheet. Bake for about 10-15 minutes, until the balls are crispy and slightly browned around the outside. Cool for a minute or two before removing from the sheet, and then serve.
