BLACK EYED PEA CROQUETTES


Last Night I Made:
BLACK EYED PEA CROQUETTES for Dinner.

Black eyed peas soaked over night then drained and processed in a food processor along with cilantro, nama shoyu, cumin, salt and pepper shaped into footballs and fried in oil.
Drizzled with a simple sauce made with malt barley and dijon mustard.

These take a little planning because you have to soak the black eyed peas overnight.
You CAN't use canned black eyed peas, they have way too much moisture and won't hold together.

These are super delicious and they go great with brown rice.

Hi VT,

Am loving your pairing of vegan goodies with toy dioramas.
So here's my question, since it appears you do a lot of recipes from scratch, as opposed to canned: in something like this black eyed pea croquette recipe, would it detract noticeably if I used canned b-eyed peas instead of the raw-and-soaked version?
thanks! Michael

These black-eyed pea croquettes look absolutely scrumptious! I love how you've transformed a humble ingredient into a flavorful vegan dish. If you ever find yourself in Hyderabad, exploring the Vegan Restaurants in Hyderabad would be a delightful experience. They offer a diverse range of plant-based dishes that celebrate the rich flavors of South Indian cuisine. For more vegan recipe ideas and inspiration, feel free to visit my website, The Earthen One. Looking forward to trying out this recipe!
