- 100 g chickpea flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 100 ml water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 tablespoon white flour
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 4 tablespoon vegetable oil for frying
Combine all the ingredients (except breadcrumbs and vegetable oil) in a large bowl. The mixture should be compact and only slightly sticky. If too sticky, add a little flour.
Divide the mixture in 4 portions and form 4 balls.
Put breadcrumbs into a bowl, place a ball on top and press with your fingers in order to form a cutlet (about 3-4 mm thick). Flip to cover with breadcrumbs.
Repeat the process with the remaining balls.
Heat vegetable oil in a large frying pan. Fry the cutlets on both sides for about 2-3 minutes. Serve hot. Enjoy!
