- Today we show you how to make these incredible chickpea fries and some vegan tzatziki to go with it. This combo is on another level! Both are pretty simple to make and extremely tasty. It would make a great appetizer if you are having people over that would please any palate! We both actually couldn't believe how delicious this combo is.
Have you ever had chickpea fries?
Chickpea Fries recipe
Ingredients:
2 cups water
1 cup chickpea flour
1 tsp olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
Optional spices:
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Directions:
1. Pour 1 cup of water into a medium sauce pan along with olive oil and salt and bring to a boil.
2. In a separate bowl, add remaining water, chickpea flour, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Whisk together until mostly smooth.
3. Add the chickpea flour mix to the boiling water and turn down to a simmer (medium heat), stirring constantly until it gets very thick. It will take at least 5-6 minutes.
4. Spread the mixture to your desired thickness on a non-stick baking tray or silicone sheet and allow to cool.
5. Once it’s cool, cut into fries and roast at 400 f for 20 minutes, flipping and baking for another 5-10 minutes until the edges turn golden brown and the fries are crispy.
6. Serve hot with your favourite dip!
Vegan Tzatziki
Ingredients:
1/2 cup unflavoured/unsweetened vegan yogurt
1/2 a lemon, juice
1 garlic clove
1/4 cup of soaked cashews (1/4 cup before soaking)
2 tbsp chopped fresh dill
1/4 of a cucumber, grated
1-2 pinches of salt
Directions: 1. Blend the yogurt, lemon juice, and cashews together in a blender until smooth
2. Pour into a bowl and stir in the rest of the ingredients until well mixed.
3. Serve immediately or chill it in the fridge (this helps it thicken up).

#chickpeafries #cooking #tzatziki - Zábava
I'm from Turkey and we also have tzatziki (we call it cacik) and I can recommend adding in a bit of mint (dried or finely cut fresh) and it takes it to a whole new level, you guys should try it!
haha, you put mint nearly everywhere in Turkey! (which always tastes yummi i have to admit :)
@@WastedContender No, we don't, weirdo.
Can agree 100% on that one Abi 😜
When I lived in Cyprus, I learned to make it with mint instead of dill.
In Cyprus, they use a lot of mint and lemon. The best
OMG so I made them and they're sooo good!!! Instead of adding salt to the boiling water I added about a half tsp of "no chicken" vegan bouillon to put a little flavor in there(i think the bouillon had salt in it). Its good! and I realized I had a pizza cutter to slice the dough into 'fries', it worked perfectly. :)
Thanks for Sharing ❤️, just wish I had been raised vegan or known sooner!!! It's such a liberating feeling and so healthy ❤️ Was a bodybuilder in my younger days and ate a high protein diet (was so programmed to eat animal products). It caused me so many problems. Been vegan now about 6 years and vegetarian before that a few years.... so happy for the change!!!!!
Hi there Derek! Thank you for my country's recipe! Just a thing though: tzatziki is better if you grate the cucumber in a separate bowl and you squeeze the water out of it ;-) Try it, believe me it's worth it!
I was just getting ready to post that too! 😆
I was just about to share this too! Lol
Same. Haha
Thanks for the advice! I'll do this next time 👌🏻
@@aiureapriniarba7 Also, make sure you put some salt in to the grated cucumber, ti will remove the moister faster
"Why are we like this?" My wife and I usually look at each other at least once a day and ask, "Why are we so weird?" And laugh just like you did. But we don't wish we weren't, and I imagine you really don't either. Keep on being like that!
My wife and I are the same way! Maybe we're all actually not weird...
Haha yeah of course we were just playing! We love being weird. Nice to hear we’re not alone.
I do this alone... can't wait for my weird half haha
@@R.L.U. lol same ;D)))
My husband and I are the same. Our nieces and nephews think so too, so they laugh at us and with us! 😂😂😂😊
That chickpea base you use to make the fries is the same I use for scrambled eggs, just add it to the sauteed veggies and cook. So delish! I also use it for fried rice too.
Can you make a small video on that? I tried chickpea flour omelette and I fail more then I succeed. Making the batter too thick or too much veggies. Would be nice with a base recipie with measurements
DEREK and Crystal look like you guys have fun together, good marriage. I can feel joy, kindness , happiness from you guys. Not to eat animal flesh is one of the reason why you are happy, calm, joyful.
Hallo Derek and Crystal!
Thank you so much for another tasty recipe video! I´m Greek and I have some suggestions for the tzatziki portion of the video:
1. You could grate the cucumber in a towel and squeeze the water out before adding it to the sauce to get a firmer end product.
2. You could sub lemon juice with white or red wine vinegar.
3. You could use a vegan greek style yogurt or a vegan skyr style yogurt to achieve the right consistency in your sauce.
I have been making vegan tzatziki this way for a long time and it is always delicious!
Sending you love and wishing you all the best!
You dont want to discard the water from the cucumber as it contains a lot of nutrients! I put it in a glass and drink it.
thank you for sharing!!
@@richardaxelsson3378 exactly no nee to drink have it in the sio ur curd should be less watery it works that way..coriander washes dried will help theiquid level
Katerina that sounds Delicious, I tried Derek and Crystal's phenomenal fries and they were also delicious. Thanks for the tip Katerina. This is on my to cook list again with your suggestions.
Agreed about removing excess water from the grated cukes - also helps to use the salt on the cukes prior to pressing the water out.
This is a you tube vegan cooking channel channel that I really like. Derek’s energy is great and Chrystal shows up pretty often as well. They also have segments on fitness.
I hope you had a wonderful trip!
This is so so similar to something we make in Sicily called “panelle”. It’s exactly the same process, but we also add parsley to them and cut them in squares to then dip fry them. We have them inside a soft bread roll with a spritz of fresh lemon juice and it’s amazing 🤩
Genoese panissa is just like what we see in the video: it's either eaten when the pudding solidifies, seasoned with oil, salt, pepper, and red onion. (served warm in winter, or at room temperature in summer). Or you chop it up into 'French fries' shapes which are then deep-fried. Traditional and widely available street food.

We get chickpea fries from Chickpea restaurant in Vancouver. They’re incredible and served smothered in a mango sweet chilli sauce. Will definitely be trying your recipe!! Thanks you two!

that reminds me of polenta. I imagine polenta would work with a sauce but I sure am going to try this
Yes! That's what I said too. We have made polenta fries as well and they are also good!
Just what we all needed. A Simnett and Crystal video 🤙
They look so good! Love the dynamic of the videos with Crystal they are super chill and fun.
Having Crystal in the kitchen always elevates the video to the next level ❤️
You both are so adorable together!!! So uplifting!!! Looks so yummy!!! Thanks so much you both!! Love you guys!!!
This could be featured on a budget-minded video, if you ever do one of those in the future. This looks like it would cost about $3 USD as a main dish for my husband and I, which is incredible. It could even fit in a Live Below The Line challenge, AND the fries are completely shelf-stable. Excellent work from you both! And you're a glowing couple.
I’m a huge fan of chickpea flour as an egg substitute for omelettes - can’t wait to try this!
Definitely giving this a try! Thanks Crystal and Derek!
You're welcome! Thanks for the comment.
Hey Derek, Thank you for this channel. It’s been a huge help and inspiration. I finally made the full switch and commitment to Wf plant based, and it’s a lot easier because I’ve seen your content for years. Shopping is a breeze, cooking is inspired, and I feel like this channel was a big educational component for taking my final steps with confidence. I’ll hit you up again when I’m sub 12% bf, when my blood panels are awesome, and when my back injury is healed enough to get back on a mountain bike (something I know this dietary lifestyle change is going to help with). Much gratitude and respect! -m
Wow that’s so interesting, not what I expected to see at all but so much easier than I thought! Look forward to trying the fries and I LOVE tzatziki so thanks for these recipes!! 👏🏼💚😁
FANTASTIC RECIPE...LOOKS so good. Thank you. for sharing.
Oh, you two are so much fun to watch!! The fries and tzatziki looks so delicious!!
Thank you so much for sharing these recipes with us.
Looking forward to making these. Thank you Derick and Crystal, y'all are Awesome 👍.
OMG! These look so amazing! And you guys are so fun. Love your videos
Looks great. Thanks guys. Crystal you add so much to the videos!
Absolutely making this tomorrow. Thank you both for sharing!! 😀
First I have to say that I never get tired of your great personalities, you two have such amazing chemistry, I love the laughter and light hearted play. Secondly, great idea to make fries out of chickpea flour and bake them, YUM, can't wait to try them and the Tzatziki Dip. Thank you for the new recipe - cheers!
That looked absolutely amazing, and the dip looked yummy too. Nice idea. Thank you. 🥰🇬🇧🐾🐾🌷
I have been dying for some tazatziki sauce but had no idea how to make a vegan version…..u guys killed it! Thank you both 👍🌸
Oooo the fries and tzatziki look so good!!!
You guys are adorable! I can’t wait to make these. Thank you for the step by step technique! So helpful. ❤
I mean, even before I clicked on the video I knew this one was going to be awesome but having watched the first 30secs now, I really want to make these asap! Chickpea flour is so so versatile - I use it for béchamel, omelettes, pancakes and quiche filling. I have also seen people make Burmese tofu with it and the concept is pretty much the same as for you fries but you leave it at the cooled-down stage and then fry it or simply cube it for various dishes. Having said that, fries sound AMAZING because anything crispy is just 10x better :D Thank you guys for this fabulous recipe!
Hello guys!Such a wonderful and creative recipe this is!I have a small tip for ya:next time squeeze the shredded cucumber before putting it to the yogurt.This way the whole tzatziki mixture will be less watery!Love you guys, greetings from the land of tzatziki (Greece 😎)

Those look pretty tasty. Crystal is such a joy to watch in the kitchen. Haven't watched too many videos lately - been busy with other things, but getting back and enjoying your videos again. Great recipe!
Can't wait to try this! Thanks :) I've been in a mediterranean mood lately!
This sounds incredible!💕
Great recipe guys, very inspiring, I love also to see you both kidding in the kitchen together : )
In Italy they make a type of chickpea bread called "farinata", it's like a focaccia but more soft and moist, made with chickpea flour that is one of my favorite things ever :D
Great job guys!! You guys are have great energy!!
Love to you both, I absolutely adore your energy!
Your channel has so many great recipes that I haven't heard of before, and as a new vegan I'm compiling a kitchen notebook of dishes I want to cook. These fries look incredible.
Awesome video as usually! I'm going to make these for my children for an after school tea with homemade baked beans and a ton of veggies.
❤️ the duos! Nice working together, team, and love the recipe.
Those look AMAZING! Well done!
Loved this tzatziki and fries! I’ll definitely try more flavors. Thanks for sharing ♥️
You guys are so fun and this looks delicious!
Got to try them!! 👍🏼👍🏼. They do look soooo good!! Thanks for sharing!

I love you both guys, most natural and honest vegan couple on CZcams
Love your good vibes, folks! And the food looks delicious.

When referring to a cucumber: "I don't care what country it's from or what language it speaks" I think we can all agree.
Looks delicious❣️Chrystals so adore love her laugh. Love you both❣️
You, ve found another tasty chickpeas recipe. You are very nice together, and always in good humor. Love from Italy

Love this video so much. So fun to watch

I first tried these at the Chickpea Restaurant in Vancouver last year!! 💪 Very cool and I'm definitely putting this on my to make list! Thank you for sharing and listing it all in your description! You're amazing; both of you!!!💕
I didn't even realize that using chickpeas was their whole schtick until someone commented about it. Makes sense. And you are welcome!
What's the name of the restaurant, I would like to go there.
As always you guys are AWESOMEV❤ TY HAVE A TREMENDOUSLY BLESSED WEEK❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
Your right, that does look really good, and GREAT for a family function. You guys are so fun to watch and your recipes are so delicious. It just makes me want to eat it all…I guess that’s the idea right….great recipe…thanks

you guys are so funny, thanks for making me smile.
This looks SOO amazing! Thank you for sharing
A great recipe, I can’t wait to try it. Your videos are funny , you truly are great together. I get I good laugh. Thank you
You guys are so adorable together!
I make falafel and tahini sauce on a frequent basis, but I've never used chickpea flour before. I think these fries would work well with falafel seasoning and honestly, this vegan tzatziki sounds way better than one made with plain Greek yogurt (of which I don't care for). Thanks for the recipe!
She is the cutest ever!! I am in the middle of making these right now. waiting for the dough to set then in the oven!! Can't wait. I'm going to surprise my daughter (15) when she gets home from school. She is strictly WFPB and will be thrilled! THanks guys!!
Sooo...I made these per your recipe..WOW!!! I love these!!! They will be on my regular from now on!
You guys have great energy and great food ideas. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much! 😊
Loving your energy
You guys are fun and inspiring. The chips look sooo delish and can’t wait to try the tzatziki. 25 years a vegan and now a new yummeroo recipe. Thx from Western Australia. 👍
