Telur Dadar (Chickpea Omelette)

Experience the goodness of a savoury omelette, veganized with chickpea flour for a protein-packed twist. Another healthy protein boost to your meal.

Preparation time: 5 minutes  

Cooking time: 30 minutes  

Serves: 5 servings  

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup chickpea flour
• 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
• Pinch of red pepper flakes
• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt (to taste)
• 3/4 cup plain, unsweetened almond milk or soy milk
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Method

1. Prepare the batter: In a bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes and salt.
2. Add liquids: Pour in the almond milk or soy milk, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of water. Whisk until the batter is smooth and well combined.
3. Heat the skillet: Warm a non-stick skillet over low-medium heat.
4. Cook the omelette: Pour a ladle of the batter into the skillet and lightly spread out the edges to form a round shape. Cook until bubbles form across the entire surface of the omelette and the batter begins to firm up. This should take about 3 to 4 minutes.
5. Flip and finish cooking: Carefully flip the omelette and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until lightly browned and cooked through.
6. Serve: Transfer the finished omelette to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep it warm. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve the Telur Dadar sliced into strips.
