BEANBALLS (VEGGIE BALLS)
Servings: 10-12
Difficulty: Medium
Cooking time: 15-20 minutes
Prep time: 15 minutes
400g boiled red beans or any bean works great
8 mushrooms
2 red onions
2 cloves of garlic
1 tsp cumin
1 egg
2 tsps meatball mix (etsy.me/3ZdvF3V)
1 tsp black pepper
8-9 tbsp breadcrumbs
1 levelled tsp mustard
1 cup boiled corn
½ bunch of parsley, chopped
1 tsp salt
• Pulse mushrooms and one of the red onions in a food processor. Pulsing is important for the chopping otherwise they can get puree.
• Brown the chopped mushrooms and onions in a large pan with 3-4 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt, for 10-12 minutes on high heat. Then, set aside to cooldown.
• Chop the other red onion and garlic in the processor without making a puree, add red beans, breadcrumbs, and pulse again. Add boiled corn, mustard, cumin, meatball mix, salt and black pepper and give it a last mix.
• Add egg, parsley and cooled red onion-mushroom mixture in and knead. If the mixture feels soft and sticky, feel free to add breadcrumbs or rest the mixture for a couple of hours if you have time.
• Wet your hands and shape the mixture into balls or long finger shaped meatballs. Shallow fry in sunflower oil or any cooking oil.
• You can enjoy your vegetarian meatballs, which are crispy outside, soft and juicy inside with garlic yoghurt and salad!

If you are vegan or lacto-vegetarian, you can replace the egg by boiling 1T of flax seeds in 4 of water, until it becomes the consistency of egg whites, and then strain the seeds. Or just add a few tablespoon of chickpea flour!
if you use ground flax seed there's no need to strain
@@breimalislobodnoime Yes, but they do have a flavor, and not a nice one!
Or aqua faba
What could I use instead of the mushrooms please?
@@turuanu oh, i love the flavour 😬
Looks great. For a vegan alternative leave out the egg and add a bit of chickpea flour and a splash of liquid for the texture.
Reporting back: prepared this 10 days ago. Easy and delicious!! 👌🏻I did let the mixture cool in the fridge for a couple of hours before forming the beanballs. It was a tad too "crumbly" and not that easy to shape. - will need to practice this more to perfect it. I had 3 beanballs that couldn't fit in the pan: put those in the fridge and fried them a few days later. I think that's the move: they were holding together better & were even yummier than the first batch. This is going in my rotation for sure!
I appreciate that you include vegetarian options in your videos. It's nice to see that everyone can enjoy delicious food. 🤌😃🥰🥰
This looks so good!! As an Orthodox Christian, we fast quite a bit during the year. I am always looking for new Vegan recipes. This is awesome, thank you so much!!!
Definitely!
enjoy!! ❤❤
Thank you for your recipe. Can I cook those in the air fryer? Just to avoid frying in a pan.
We had a Turkish dining facility in Afghanistan and the Kafke was always delicious, can’t wait to make this one, shared with family who are eating less meat these days for health conscious reasons. Lots of ❤back to you from USA 🇺🇸❤️
Love the whole team and everything that you prepare for us! Thank you for sharing your passion with us!
WE LOVE ❤YOU TOO!! thanks for helping us spread our passion...
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this recipe. Many years ago Marks & Spencer used to do a vegetarian, vegan ism wasn't heard of, bean burger using those exact ingredients and I, a dedicated meat eater, have longed to taste them again and now you have given me the recipe. Also I love taking, and sesame helva and I will be making it for myself instead of ordering online. God bless you and be with you all. We are also experiencing such high food prices compared to the beginning of this year. My old mum used to say "the rich get richer and the poor get poorer". Lots of love to you and your lovely team ❤❤❤👋👋👵🏴
Hi from Tennessee USA. Looks absolutely delicious. Definitely going to try and make that dish. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe. Have a fantastic day.
Enjoy it 😍 please leave a comment on how your veggie köftes turn out when you try!!
When I come back home again (Denmark )I'm gonna try this recipe .. I'm in Türkiye right now, and I'm going to visit your shop Monday afternoon 🥰🥰
I absolutely appreciate your recipes, they are amazing! But the way you talk to your audience, the care and compassion (which is so missing in this cruel world) is what makes me watch your videos!! Please keep up the good work. You make the world a happier place (: (:
You have become a part of my Saturday routine. Thank you for bringing fabulous recipes and the warmth that keeps us coming back. Love to you and your team!
OMG and they don't fall apart! Oh Refika, you are simply awesome! Kimse senin gibi değil!
my husband likes to eat vegan style...and our son just asked for more bean recipes. This is delicious! I make flax egg with 1T ground flax seeds stirred with 4T boiling water. No need to strain, because it adds fiber. Thank you.
For some reason, the TH-cam algorithm was not suggesting your videos to me for quite a while, so I’m very happy I checked subscriptions today. This way of eating is absolutely wonderful, and I feel very happy to get your recipe. Many thanks! 😊😋
I ADORE READING
I made these, they are awesome. I recently went vegan and have been missing kofte, I didn’t use an egg or any replacer they didn’t need it, they held together fine. 😊
This looks delicious and super easy! I will make it today. :) Love hearing the team chiming in - it's always a treat when you sort of break the fourth wall (let the behind-the-scene operation bleed in).
I usually add vegetable based beef stock. My favourite is from an Australian company called Massel.
This looks nice Refika. Many of us have given up red meat and the processed substitutes are not good. Not sure about the corn but the rest looks like it would work really well. Much love from me!
i do something like that but with miso paste instead of mustard. I like your way guys!
Love your channel , energy and joy for life . Thank you for vegan recipe too. I watch many that aren’t and try to adjust to vegan.
That DJ bite is very funny 😂
Thanks
You’re welcome 😍 your support means the world to us!!
You made this look SO good! Thank you! Always appreciate these vegetarian recipes.
Hi! I found your channel quite recently. Because I think Turkish food is SO GOOD, I sat for hours with your videos. My stomach rumbled loudly. 😄One good recipe after another... Me and my family will be eating gourmet food for a long time to come. Thanks for that! 💝Hugs from Sweden.
Wonderful!
Thank you so much for another fabulous meatless recipe!! Team Refika: we love you guys so much. Please keep those wonderful videos coming. ❤️😘❤️
At 6:06 what an honest review of your own cooking 😊
Amazing recipes Thank you-- i likeat
That looks delicious👏🏼I’m def gonna try this!
Thanks...for the turkish recipe ..i love them 💕 ❤ 💓 💖
Amazing recipes always 🥰 Thank you!
Hi Refika, I am hosting a BBQ next Sunday (weather permitting, live in UK and it has rained for 6 weeks!!!) My theme will be Cypriot and to be fair a lot of it is Greek but I would also like to add some Turkish as IMO their cuisine is very similar (hope I am not offending anyone by saying that) I want to make burgers do you think I could turn your kofta mixture into a burger as I will have several veggies. I would cook the first on a pan and finish them off on the BBQ as I know from experience veggie burgers have a habit of falling apart on the Barbie. What do you think?
Looks delicious, will definitely try this
Thanks another nice recipe
Love your recipes!
I tried this recipe. It turned out to be sooo delicious! A huge winner. It is going to be a staple for us now. Thanks Refika, Burak, Bahar and the rest of the team❤

Hello from Canada. Thank you, thank you so very much for this episode. I have been looking for this for so long. Will be cooking this without question. Thank you as well for helping me feed my family with amazing recipes. All the best to you❤❤❤👍👍👍
Awesome recipe. Our people copied many recipes during Ottoman time and for us the Kofta is like a hamburger and these would be for us kebache. Thanks for such a great recipe, I am a vegetarian now and nice to have something similar but vegetarian!
Refika I'd like to make this and freeze some. Should I freeze after forming and before cooking? Or cook then freeze? Making your falafels and hummus later too.
Dear Refika, is it possible to air fry this interesting vegkofte ? ❤from a true fan from 🇨🇦
Yum! I think I know what I'm making this weekend!
Great recipe. Great video. I can't wait to make this. You and your crew are the best. You brighten my day. Thank you for all you do.

I tried this today and it is absolutely delicious. Thankyou Refika!
This looks so good! I can’t have the oil so will dry fry or bake and hope for similar crunch and browning. Thanks so much for sharing!

You are the best!
I love in the turkish recipes: some parsley. Exact amount: a lot, double what you think, or more. We eat same way the parsley. In heaps in or on everything.
Thank you for this recipe, can’t wait to try it! I’d like to ask for ideas on how I can turn this into a meal please. What else can I serve this with? Many thanks ❤️
Thank you, your recipe is great for bean burgers!
Love all your cooking videos ! you seem to be a natural in knowing what spices go together and food combinations. I am sure it’s past down generation after generation and you can see and feel your Devine connection with each dish you create. I am from an English back ground and I live in Canada …food was simple, plain and boring growing up 😅…. Salt, pepper and maybe garlic LOL . However I have a great love for tasty food and exotic spices from any country . I do try to cook a variety of international foods, as well as feed them to my children, who now have a love for cooking and adventure in trying new recipes. Thank you so much for all your recipes, especially vegetarian recipes. .. as I am now eating a plant based diet and loving it. I have made your hummus love it! ( I did not know to take the skin off the chickpeas 👍) I will be making your Kafta (I usually buy it from our Lebanese grocery store ) but you have made it look “do able “ and we love it 😊 . Also just wanted to say thank you for being “ waste conscience “ as my grandparents, and so many generations before us had many food shortages and reused, reduced and recycled before it was “fashionable” …therefore I am so grateful for the abundance of food we have, I also try to be very conscience of waste and using everything . Blessing to you ,for all the work ,love and attention you put in these videos, also for the many generations of women who also tried and tested these recipes and passed them down . 🙏
Refika and team never disappoint ❤🥰
❤
@@Refika Thanks for including recipes for we plant-strong eaters!
Love your style
Thank you so much your show how to make vegan meatball
Wow looks so delicious and nice recipe 👌👌🤤🤤
I wanted to go to Turkey to see the Hagia Sophia, Ephesus, Cappadocia and Pamukkale. Now I just want to go to eat.😅
Yummy Refika. ❤
This sounds and looks delicious! Do you think the ingredients can be chopped fine enough by hand? I'm not a fast chopper but don't have a processor. Thank you for more cooking inspiration, Refika!
