Sweet potato falafel with lemon and mustard humus
Howzit foodfightfriday fam, this is my entry, SWEET! Ok so I been experimenting again and think 🤔 it turned out quite nice if I say so myself. OK so I will start of with the excuses first, just throw it out there like I did my phone, photos are a bit blury because my phone picked a fight with on of my wrenches 🛠 at work and came out 2nd best.
So why sweet potato you say, well for some reason my wife bought way too many sweet potatoes for any sain person to eat, so I had to get creative, and this is what I came up with.
Ingredients
575g sweet potato
500g chickpeas
2 onions
4 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
Half a teaspoon smoked paprika
2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
Pinch of salt and pepper
First I baked the chickpeas, onions and garlic, while boiling sweet potato.
Then basically chucked it in the food processor bit by bit.
Then Dumped the mixture in some bread crumbs and baked.
Right then for the lemon and mustard humus.
Ingredients
2 cans of chickpeas with the water
2 tablespoons tahini paste
1 squeezed lemon
1 teaspoon whole grain mustard
3 garlic cloves
20g nutritional yeast flakes
Pinch of salt and pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
Chuck in a blender and POW!
It's amazing how a couple random things can taste awesome. Thanks for stopping by and have an awesome weekend.

I love all kinds of falafel. My diet had me cut out chickpeas unfortunately so I’ve been a few weeks without. That is until I decided to try my hand at a cauliflower falafel. Dandays and I both thought it turned out really good. I bet these sweet potato ones would give me a run for my money. The pita pocket is the ticket too. Happy food fight @gguy773!
Ooo, cauliflower falafel, I'll be all over that like a tramp on a bag of chips 🍟.
Made with half a roasted cauliflower head, coconut flour, ground flax seeds, and a ton of spices… I also rolled the patties in coconut flour to soak up any extra moisture from baking. Baked 20 minutes on each side and then an extra 5-10 under broil to crisp them up. They were yum… I could have done with the cauliflower hummus I made for the topping but am happy the falafel recipe worked out. I bet I could do similar with some brocc 🧐
Looks freakin awesome, nice 1
Thanks :)0
Talk about creative!! Those look super delicious!! Nice job improvising, Happy FFF.
Sorry your phone lost against your wrench, I’m sure it was an epic battle.
Thanks, I should call my phone Connor Macgregor now.
I saw you got dishes up a belt last week, chef? What happened to it—didn’t make it back from the tailor in time? 😉
Damn esteem app, I just went back to check my post and see what you talking about, no belt, it was there when I posted it, it seems to disappear. Slightly annoying, I am going to see if I can edit it.
Doesn't work, obviously they think I'm not worthy.
Interesting @gguy773. I’ve experienced some discrepancies from one location to the next and not being able to click on the same links.
I just visited the winners post again and scrolled down to your belt. I held my finger on it and clicked “copy.” Then when I paste the address in my search bar your belt works—it doesn’t do that for you?
I think it is my esteem app, I don't use a computer, just my phone, I still have my other belt downloaded, but when I add it to the post it disappears after I post it. I am going to try uninstall the app and reinstall, it is the new version of esteem, might have a bug or something.
While you’re here, I’m noticing several of you receiving quite friendly Upvotes from esteem, am I missing out on something dude?
If you use esteem they will give you upvotes, it is not guaranteed, but if you go to the discord, you can make them aware that you don't receive upvotes and they will pop by and upvote. If you don't have the app download it is worth it, it is available on pc too I think, but I only use my phone, pc is bust, I bought a ps4 instead 😁
I just downloaded the app. It’s probably my location but the thing is really buggin, I can’t even get it to maintain the sign in page long enough to try to sign in. And, does it really want your master password?? Does the app have problems like that regularly or is it just my connection you think? Well, I just used partiko and Steepshot without an issue so I don’t know??
I’ll try it again later. Thanks a lot for the info @gguy773.
There are 2 apps the first version is more stable but basic, version 2 is a bit buggy but still work in progress. I swap between the apps to get best of both worlds. Yeah it needs your master password, but it is safe I have used it for a year now.
I learned so many wonderful things from your recipes @gguy773, sweet potatoes is always available here.. but chickpeas? I don't think I ever seen any of it at the vegetable seller around.
you know what? the blurry pictures made it more exotic and mysterious.. but still.. It looks delicious to me
Thanks, @puravidaville said she used cauliflower instead of chickpeas if that helps. I think it would be just as good
