Homemade Veggie Nuggets Food

HOMEMADE VEGGIE NUGGETS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375F.
• Add the veggies to the food processor (cooked potato, raw carrot, raw broccoli, and garlic cloves). Pulse until all the ingredients are chopped very small. Add the remaining ingredients, whisking the egg first before adding it to the food processor, and pulse until the ingredients are well combined.
• Use a cookie scoop, if desired, to form balls about 1" in diameter.
• Set the balls on a parchment-lined cookie sheet and spray (or lightly rub) a bit of oil (such as: avocado, coconut, or olive oil) on the parchment. Slightly flatten the balls.
• Bake the nuggets for 15 minutes, flipping once (you'll need a heavy spatula, like a metal spatula, to get under the nuggets), or until lightly browned on both sides. They will be soft and tender.
• Allow the nuggets to cool for 10 minutes (or longer) until they're easy to handle. Enjoy the nuggets plain or with a dip (honey mustard, ranch, or ketchup).

VEGGIE NUGGETS WITH SUMMER SLAW

Steps:

• Boil the quinoa for 20 mins following pack instructions, leave to stand for 5 mins, then drain well. Meanwhile, fry the onions in 1 tbsp oil over a medium-low heat for 5 mins with the lid on the pan, then uncover and fry for 5 mins more until soft and starting to colour. Take off the heat, stir in the black beans, oregano, peanut butter, parsley and bouillon, then mash everything together with a potato masher to crush the beans. Add the quinoa and eggs and mix well.
• Heat the remaining 1 tbsp oil in a large non-stick frying pan then, using a measuring tablespoon, scoop rounded spoonfuls of the mixture and add to the pan, spaced apart. Cook for about 2-3 mins each side until the nuggets are browned. Cook half the mixture and save the remainder for another day. Will keep chilled for up to three days.
• To make the coleslaw, put the yogurt, mustard powder and vinegar in a bowl, stir together to make a dressing, then add the vegetables and coriander and toss well. Serve half the coleslaw with two portions of the nuggets. The remainder will keep chilled for up to three days.

VEGAN NUGGETS

Steps:

• Pulse the cauliflower, carrots and onion in a food processor until very finely chopped, like rice. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and gently fry the mix for 12-15 mins until softened. Add the garlic and fry for a further 1 min, then take off the heat and stir in the nutritional yeast and yeast extract. Set aside.
• Blend the beans into a mushy purée in a food processor, then add to the veggie mix and combine well. Stir in the flour and season. Put in the fridge to firm up for 1 hr.
• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Line a large baking tray with baking parchment and coat with a little olive oil. To make the coating, mix the gram flour with 150ml water using a fork so it resembles beaten egg, then season. Scatter the extra gram flour on a plate and fill a second with the breadcrumbs.
• Roll the bean mixture into walnut-sized pieces, then flatten to form nugget shapes. Dip the pieces first in the gram flour, then in the gram batter, and finally roll in the breadcrumbs - handle carefully as they will be a little soft. When the nuggets are fully coated, lay them out on the prepared tray.
• Bake for 20 mins, then use tongs to turn each nugget over and bake for a further 15 mins until they are dark golden and crisp. Leave to cool for 20 mins before serving with your choice of dipping sauces.
