#487 Okara Felafel

[MrHoldenM]

Just tried this -- it turned out great!. I'm so glad of all these uses okara has -- I felt awful to threw it away :)

[RatRaceAce]

I have one question: You started by adding "one cup of okara" into the blender. Does that mean you blend some of the okara and then you also mix in some unblended okara at the end?

[RatRaceAce]

Good use for the okara. I am just starting to make soya milk, and it seemed a shame to waste the residue after filtering. Besides, I like felafel! Will try this out, thanks.

[licensedtolive]

Okara is like the waste product, the roughage left over after you use your soy beans to make tofu. They make very good veggie burgers.

does it sips too much oil?

[rosario50021]

@caracas1900 mi traducción es: Licuar: • 1 taza de okara • 2 dientes de ajo • 1 cucharadita de pimiento en polvo • 1 cucharadita de comino molido • ¼ de cucharadita de sal • 1 cucharadita de polvo de hornear (royal) • 1 cucharada sopera de ajonjolí • 1 cucharada de aceite de oliva • ½ cebolla • 1 taza de agua • 1 taza de perejil Mezclar con 5 tazas de okara 1 taza de harina, hacer bolitas toda la mezcla y poner en charolas. Freír

I have a nice supply of okara coming in from my making tofu, so this will be great to try! And I love the way you pronounce "Cumin".. LOL

[hackneytrainer]

where can I find okara ?

i live in northern Indiana and none of the grocers

have ever heard of it. this sounds great & nutritious! thanks for your show!!

[Apashiol]

@hackneytrainer In case no one answered your question, okara is the Japanese name for what is left after you blend soya beans with water to make soya milk. Once you strain the blended mixture the solids left have all the fibre and quite a lot of protein. You can use this 'okara' in veggie burgers and rissoles. It is rather like when Indians make dahi bara, but using the soya okara instead of lentils. It is best to boil the mixture before straining it to cook the okara first.

@hackneytrainer

you have to make it if you want it really fresh

use soja beans to make soja milk or tofu look at those videos

[abcdog350]

what does it taste like ?

[Mayoini]

Hi! I just made tofu and am looking for okara recipes :DD Do you use fresh or dried okara in this recipe?

[tdesknf]

We used fresh Okara.

[aurezio]

Thanks for the recipes. But thanks even for your super sexy relaxin voice wich is amazing to hear with headphones.

[MrPesic]

i've just prepared it. couldn't wait to buy parsley so I left that out. made it without baking powder and with sesame ouil instead of olive oil. It turned out very delicious! thank you for this recipe!

[thedailyenglishshow]

You're welcome! I'm glad to hear they turned out well :)

[jupotatoes]

I always used those leftover fibers to make a tofu-butter-spicy-thingy and stuff sandwiches. Can't wait to try the felafels, gonna try to cook'em up on the stove though.

[starunhappy]

delicious

[supersampler123]

You are awesome!

[e102ewan]

i love falafel

[Spazman100]

What's it taste like.

[abravonu]

Do you pre-cook the okara when using it in this recipe? Or is the frying enough?

[1dsunhope]

wow i can feel the fiber going through my system, how about you.

mahalo

[e102ewan]

i really can aswell and i used porridge oats to thicken it

[toydoctorrrs]

we were just wondering what to do with all that soya thingies and here is the answer.

thanks a lot :)

[Carmarthan415]

you can also add the soy grinds with egg and ground meat and make fried meat balls or patties.... i had that when i was little.... now im a vegetarian...

[toydoctorrrs]

we dont go for meat either. we also tried pasta sauce with it. yummy

[Carmarthan415]

i had some leftoverfelafel cooked in tomato sauce over rice for lunch today. Some of the felafels broke and thickened the sauce quite nicely!

[funnyguise]

and apparently, too much unfermented soy is not so good... So, I'd use it as a treat only.

[neraknerak]

i made soy milk this morning and now i have something to do with it- thanks! any more vid-recipes?

[sysman76]

jajajajajajaja

[bestiaccia]

Awesome recipe!

[farhmoha]

looks good

[kimmiekeuh]

thank you so much!

[beatryxa]

Very nice, that a very intelligent idea, i was thinking that it was a wast throw all that to trash, thank you so much dear.

[F00dTube]

As with all vegetarian products I like every ingredient except the soja. :p

[JesseQuintana]

Your so awesome!

[thedailyenglishshow]

Thank you!

[ponhand]

nice saturated fat factory on the cooking side.......

[thedailyenglishshow]

Yeah, you don't want to eat too many of them. Just a couple with a big plate of salad and vegetables maybe.

[KitanaiYatsu]

What is Okara? Can you buy it somewhere? Is there a substitute ingredient?

[thedailyenglishshow]

It's the stuff you get after making soymilk - so it's soy beans minus the milk. So you would only really use it if you were making soymilk and had it left over. Otherwise you could just make felafel with chickpeas.

[moore79]

Thanks for sharing..they look delicious!

[proffmongo]

Yummy!!!

[Noah2112]

I couldnt make out what the green stuff was you mixed in. What was it?

[thedailyenglishshow]

Parsley.

[Noah2112]

No I meant the part at :39 sec. when you said 'Add this blended stuff to a bowl'. I see now you were adding the blended stuff to the okara.

[peralic9237]

It looks soooo delicious. I want to eat so someday I'll try it.

[Armonis]

:O!!!

It's CUM-IN? Not coo-min?  Learn something new every day.

[thatamericangirl]

I say "cue-men", but I often her "coo-min". Never heard it as "cum-in" until today, though! English is a fun language. ;)

[Armonis]

I'm thinking it's her awesome accent+heritage.

[licensedtolive]

@Armonis Because she pronounces garlic "gahlic" and cumin "cummin"?
