REVITHOKEFTEDES: GREEK-STYLE CHICKPEA PATTIES

Revithokeftedes: Greek-Style Chickpea Patties image

Revithokeftedes is the Greek word for chickpea meatballs. That's what it literally translates to. I prefer to form them into burger patties and serve them with tzatziki and a salad. From start to finish, they're ready in 20 minutes. You can't beat that!

Ingredients

15 ounces cooked chickpeas, or leftover chickpea stew
A handful of fresh parsley
3 scallions, finely sliced
1 cup panko bread crumbs or mashed potatoes
Approximately 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt, or more
Black pepper, to taste
1 egg, beaten
5-6 olives, pitted and sliced
Oil for frying
Lemon wedges and tzatziki sauce for serving

Steps:

Place the parsley and olives in a food processor fitted with the blade attachment and pulse until finely chopped. Add the chickpea stew or boiled and drained chickpeas and pulse until the chickpeas are finely chopped and a paste begins to form.
Place the chickpea mixture in a mixing bowl and add the chopped scallions, panko bread crumbs, flour, and salt and pepper. Mix well and taste. Adjust seasoning if necessary. Add the egg and mix well until combined. Add some more flour if needed so that the mixture sticks together.
Form into patties (1/4 cup each) or into balls to create vegetarian meatballs.
Heat a cast iron skillet with some vegetable oil and fry until golden on both sides. About 3 minutes per side.
Serve with salad, pita bread, and some lemon wedges. They taste great dipped in homemade tzatziki sauce. Enjoy!

Soak the chickpeas into a large bowl filled with water and a pinch of salt for about 6 hours, or overnight. Drain and place them into a large pan, filled with water and boil for 40-60 minutes, until soft. When done, drain them into a colander. Place on some paper towel on a large tray and let them dry out completely for about an hour. It is very important that they dry out completely.
In the meantime, finely chop the onions and garlic. Place a pan into medium heat, add 2 tbsps of olive oil and sauté, until tender.
Use a food processor to mix all the ingredients together. Add the boiled chickpeas, the saute onions and garlic, along with the cumin and coriander and mix. Open the food processor, blend the mixture with a spoon and mix again. Repeat 2-3 times, until all the ingredients are combined. This should take 2-3 minutes.
Into a large bowl, add the chopped parsley, 2 tbsps of flour and the chickpea mixture. Season well with salt and pepper and mix well, squeezing the ingredients with your hands, until combined. Roll the mixture into balls.

Wash and soak the dried chickpeas overnight or for 8 hours. When ready to pressure cook, change the water couple of times, then take the chana in the pressure cooker along with salt, cloves, garlic and dried thyme. Pressure cook for 4 to 5 whistles or till done. Let the pressure fall down, before draining the chickpeas.
Remove the spices, drain the chickpea, reserve the cooked water. Once the chickpea is cooled down, you can remove the skin off by popping each chickpea. What I did was to mash it with the potato masher, the peels come out naturally. Pick it out and discard. I left most of the skin intact as that adds to the volume.
Microwave 2 medium potatoes, peel and mash into the chickpea. I pulsed it a couple of times to get the smooth dough.
Heat a nonstick pan, cook finely chopped onions, garlic in 2 tbsp of olive oil until tender and translucent. Set aside.

Soak the chickpeas in water overnight. Wash them well and remove as much of the peel, if any. Drain, add fresh water and bring to a boil. Skim all the foam that forms with a slotted spoon and then drain. Put them in the pot again and add water and remove any more peels which will float on the surface. Put them back on the heat with water and when they boil add salt and simmer until they become soft. This may take 1 – 2 hours depending on the quality of the chickpeas. You can boil the potato separately or add it half way through.
Drain and mash with a fork. I do not mash them in a food processor as we want some small bits of chickpeas in the patties.
