Vegan spaghetti meatballs
En ce moment de suis dans ma phase expérimentation, alors des fois ça marche comme avec le fromage vegan et des fois ça foire complétement (mais ça je ne vous le montre pas !!!). Depuis le temps que j’ai envie de faire mon seitan maison, j’ai enfin sauté le pas avec une recette de spaghetti boulette vegan, boulettes donc à base de seitan. A Noël dernier nous avions déjà mangé du seitan maison (ça n’est donc pas tout à fait la première fois) mais j’avais fait mon rôti avec du gluten (necessarily) and chickpea flour and we found it very dense and a little sickening with Monsieur. After reflexion, I said to myself that a vegetable would be welcome to lighten everything up and that’s how it was with the last eggplants, these vegan meatballs were born ! Okay, enough chatting, homemade seitan is obviously a bit long to make but in the end you will be very proud of yourself (and it counts) and it will bluff all the omnivores around you !
And then the spaghetti meatballs are still super regressive as a dish, It’s perfect for this very rainy start to autumn. !

- 3 cans of crushed tomatoes
- 2 cloves of garlic

4.12.22Bonjour, these meatballs look delicious. When you say gluten, it’s simply wheat flour. ? and can we make it with rice and chickpea flour ?
Emilie
8.12.22Hello Nath,
wheat gluten is not flour it is wheat protein which you can find under the name gluten in organic stores. It is difficult to replace with anything else because it provides the characteristic “chewy” texture. !
I hope I have enlightened you 😉
