I often use aquafaba from chickpeas when i bake, but seldom knows what to do with the chickpeas. Therefore I decided to create a few easy to cook recipes that I can get some inspiration from.
First out is this super delicious, tasteful chickpea stew flavoured with coconut milk, basil, red curry paste and garlic. This stew is ready to eat in under 30 minutes, it won't get much better than that!
When you use chickpeas, whatever you do DON'T throw away the aquafaba (chickpea water)! I'ts an absolutely amazing substitute for egg in a whole lot of different pastries and sweets. I have to admit that I was a bit sceptical before I tried it myself, but when I did it turned out to be the best thing I've used in vegan pastries!
Meringues, mud cake, cheesecake and sponge cake are jus a few of the things that I've used the aquafaba for.
