Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Vegan Cevapcici
  1. Soak the sunflower mince in hot vegetable broth for 5-10 minutes, then drain excess liquid.
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil and sauté diced onion for about 3 minutes until translucent, then add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
  3. Combine chickpeas, sautéed onions and garlic, soaked sunflower mince, chickpea flour, soy sauce, tomato paste, mustard, paprika, chili, salt, pepper, parsley, coriander, and lemon juice in a food processor. Pulse until a slightly textured dough forms.
  4. Shape the mixture into sausages, patties, or meatballs, ensuring they hold together.
  5. To fry, heat oil in a skillet and fry the sausages for about 8 minutes until golden brown, or bake at 392°F (200°C) for 25 minutes.
  6. Serve warm alongside dishes like Turkish bulgur salad or vegan tzatziki.
