Preparation

Step 1

Instructions

Blend together chickpeas, vegetable stock, maple syrup and soy sauce until there are no large chunks of chickpeas.

In a large bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients. Stir in the chickpea/veggie stock mixture.

Knead with your hands just until it forms a dough ball.

Divide the ball into 8-10 pieces and roll into sausage links.

Wrap the sausage links in foil and twist the ends like you would a piece of candy (think Tootsie Roll style - see photo above)

Steam the sausages for 45 minutes.

You can serve them just steamed, but if you want some crisp on your sausage links, fry them in a little oil.

Store the remaining sausage links in the fridge. Or, freeze for up to 3 months.
