Low Carb Falafel with Tahini Sauce
This recipe includes superfoods such as:
Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Lemons are also rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, and other antioxidants. They can potentially support the immune system and have other health benefits. Lemons also have a low glycemic index, so they should not cause a rapid rise in blood sugar when consumed in natural form.
1 cup raw cauliflower, pureed
½ cup ground slivered almonds
1 Tbsp ground cumin
½ Tbsp ground coriander
1 tsp kosher salt
½ tsp cayenne pepper
1 clove garlic, minced
2 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
2 large eggs
3 Tbsp coconut flour
Tahini sauce:
2 Tbsp tahini paste
4 Tbsp water
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp salt
For the cauliflower you should end up with a cup of the puree. It takes about 1 medium head (florets only) to get that much. First chop it up with a knife, then add it to a food processor or magic bullet and pulse until it's blended but still has a grainy texture.
You can grind the almonds in a similar manner - just don't over grind them, you want the texture.
Combine the ground cauliflower and ground almonds in a medium bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir until well blended.
Heat a half and half mix of olive and grapeseed (or any other light oil) oil until sizzling. While it's heating, form the mix into 8 three-inch patties that are about the thickness of a hockey puck.
Fry them four at a time until browned on one side and then flip and cook the other side. Resist the urge to flip too soon - you should see the edges turning brown before you attempt it - maybe 4 minutes or so per side. Remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain any excess oil.
Serve with tahini sauce and a tomato & parsley garnish if desired.
Tahini sauce: Blend all ingredients in a bowl. Thin with more water if you like a lighter consistency.
