FlaminGirl's recipes! #60 - Baked Falafel burgers

in #food5 years ago (edited)

My dear foodies,

If you are one of those who delirious about Arab food, and think that you can only eat falafel without accompanying it with other things, because I bring them a hamburger made with falafel, the same Arab recipe but applied to the rich hamburgers in a vegan version, let's see how we get this rich dish.

For the burger dough:

♡ 200 g. of dried chickpeas

♡ A pinch of salt

Accompaniment:

Preparation time: 35min

Cooking time: 35min

We cleaned the chickpeas and left them to soak all night.

After soaking, drain the chickpeas and mash them with all the ingredients.

Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and flatten it to give it the shape of a hamburger.

Put the burgers on a baking sheet on baking paper.

Heat the oven to 200º and bake the burgers for 15 minutes. First 10 minutes on one side, then 5 minutes on the other.

To prepare the vegan yogurt mayonnaise, put the soy yogurt in the blender glass, place the arm of the blender on the bottom and start beating at high speed. Little by little, we add the sunflower oil in the form of the fine thread without stopping beating until it emulsifies. Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1 garlic and salt to taste, and beat a little more.

Prepare the hamburger accompaniment.

Cut the beetroot and the cucumber very thin slices.

Serve the hot burgers inside the bread with a little vegan yogurt mayonnaise and a few slices of beet and cucumber to taste.

Benefits of coriander

Warrior against salmonella

Coriander can be as effective as the most common antibiotic used to treat salmonella (gentamicin), an essential oil contained in the herb, dodecenal, would have antibiotic activity to break the membrane of the salmonellosis bacteria and weaken it to destroy it, according to a study by the Autonomous University of Guadalajara, Mexico and the University of Berkeley, California.

Combats cholesterol

If you have high cholesterol problems, drinking cilantro tea can help you reduce your levels, say researchers at the Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla (UAP), Mexico. The study highlights that some of the acids present in coriander reduce the accumulation of cholesterol in the internal walls of the arteries.

Allied against diabetes

Daily consumption of cilantro would be very useful in regulating blood glucose levels. A study by Mexican researchers using coriander seeds and leaves showed a decrease of up to 15% in glucose levels and improved insulin sensitivity in patients with diabetes.

Powerful anti-inflammatory

Known for its taste and smell, coriander has anti-inflammatory agents that help reduce inflammation in the joints and combat rheumatoid arthritis, according to a study conducted in India by the Institute of Medical Sciences, which administered an extract of coriander seeds rich in phytonutrients and antioxidants to patients with arthritis.

A natural bactericide

Coriander has traditionally been used in herbal medicine to prevent infection and a study by the University of Berkeley, California proved its benefits. It was discovered that by applying the juice to wounds, one of its compounds destroys the bacteria's cell membrane, disrupting essential processes and leading to their death.

Effective against the flu

Coriander, besides having antibacterial properties, contains vitamins A and C that make it a perfect ally to combat colds and flu, as it also has expectorant properties. The American Indians used coriander to attack the flu and in the medicine cabinet, a coriander infusion is one of the best options to say goodbye to the symptoms.

As an aphrodisiac

Since the ancient Greeks coriander has been used as an aphrodisiac and is mentioned in the classic Arab novel, The Thousand and One Nights. In the Middle Ages, there was a drink made with cilantro, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves and ginger called "hippocras" (because it was the Greek doctor Hippocrates who invented it) that was very popular in France that was given to the bride and groom on their wedding night to awaken passion.
