- About 30 ml of soy milk
- 6 g of baking powder
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon of corn oil
- 50 g of chickpea flour
- Untreated lemon zest
- Whole food, organic: 60 g of cane sugar
- 150 g of wholemeal flour
- 60 ml of water
- 30 g of flax seeds
For frying
- Q.b. of peanut oil
Materials Needed
- Machine to roll out the dough or rolling pin
- Scale weighs food
- Bowls of various sizes
- Pasta cutter wheel
- Sieve
- Mixer
- Food thermometer
Preparation
- In a blender, finely chop the flax seeds. Gather the flaxseed powder in a bowl and pour in the water. Let the mixture rest so that the mucilages present form a gelatinous and dense paste.
- Meanwhile, blend the brown sugar with the lemon zest.
- In a bowl, first combine the dry ingredients: chopped and flavored cane sugar, wholemeal flour, chickpea flour, salt and sifted yeast. Mix the ingredients and mix with a tablespoon of corn oil, soy milk and flaxseed paste.
Did you know that
Flax seeds are very rich in mucilage: in contact with water, they form a dense and gelatinous mass that can be used as a valid alternative to eggs!- Mix the ingredients to obtain a dough similar to vegan shortcrust pastry. Cover with cling film and leave to rest for at least half an hour.
- Take the dough, cut it into 3 parts and roll it out finely with the help of the pasta cutter, taking care to always flour everything to prevent the dough from sticking to the machine.
The right advice
For a machine with 9 sizes, it is advisable to roll out the dough to N ° 6, until obtaining an almost transparent sheet.- With the zigzag wheel, make some fairly regular rectangles, approximately 5 x 8 cm in size. With the same wheel, engrave each rectangle on the surface.
- Pour the peanut oil into a pan and, with the food thermometer, measure the temperature until it reaches 160-180 ° C.
- Very quickly fry the rectangles of pasta in oil at 180 ° C: just a few seconds are enough.
Attention
The chatter must remain in the oil for a very short time to avoid burning them! 20-30 seconds are in fact enough: as soon as it is removed from the oil, the chatter will be soft. Once cold, they will instead take on a very crunchy texture.- Drain the chiacchiere and place them on absorbent paper. Serve with finely chopped brown sugar.
Alice's comment - PersonalCooker
This chatter is a bit ugly, I know, but I'm very good! You would never stop eating these delicacies: and then the flax seeds make them even more crunchy. Well, if you don't take my word for it, all you have to do is try to make them yourself but I warn you: they are addictive!Nutritional values and Health Comment on the recipe
ATTENTION! The nutritional details of Wholemeal Chiacchiere is not visible on the side due to the impossibility of indirectly estimating the absorption coefficient of the oil for frying.
The Vegan Frappe are a very energetic dry pastry preparation, rich in lipids (for frying) and carbohydrates (from flour), but without ingredients of animal origin, therefore suitable for vegan and vegetarian diets. Proteins are deficient, even if somewhat compensated from the point of view of Biological Value.
The prevalence of fatty acids, by virtue of the presence of linseed and corn oil, is in favor of the unsaturated ones (also thanks to the use of peanut oil for frying) and the percentage of polyunsaturated is particularly high. Cholesterol is absent, while the fibers are quite significant.
Whole Wheat Chatters are a recipe not recommended in case of overweight and celiac disease, while they can be included in the diet for lactose intolerance. The average portion is modest, about 20-40g (it is better to prefer consumption in conjunction with secondary meals).
