Curried Chickpea Croquettes With Yogurt Sauce image

From the IGA Supermarket chain. It's too bad I can't post the picture because it looks really nice. Apparently two patties makes one serving, making it four servings for four people, especially with a complete meal. What I plan to do below is write that it makes eight patties, and allow everyone here to decide if they want to serve one or two patties per person. Because of the hot curry paste this is really for people who like their recipes hot.

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup chopped of fresh mint
1 garlic clove, chopped

1 onion, finely chopped
4 teaspoons hot curry paste

1/2 cup store bought roasted red pepper, chopped

  • In a large bowl, mix chickpeas, onion, curry paste, and egg. Mash the mixture with a potato masher until blended but not smooth.
  • Add red peppers and oat bran, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix with a fork until ingredients are well combined.
  • Shape mixture into 8 patties and coat with chopped almonds.
  • Place patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes, turning patties halfway through the cooking.
  • Place each croquette on a bed of salad greens and serve with yougurt sauce.
  • Note: For a meal, serve each person 2 croquettes with buttered linguini, broccoli florets and yogurt sauce (this is just a suggestion, and you can always do something similar along this line).
