Nutritional values

Breaded Brussels sprouts with beetroot hummus provide a lot of fiber and help to soothe an irritated stomach lining with its bitter substances. The small winter cabbage overtakes all its competitors with its vitamin C content and thus optimally strengthens the immune system. Beet also has a number of benefits to offer: Especially the content of folic acid and iron stand out. Thus, the colorful tuber can contribute to healthy blood formation.

If you have other vegetables at home or just want some variety, try breading other vegetables with the hazelnut-parmesan mixture. For example, cauliflower, broccoli or celery are particularly tasty. Instead of chickpea flour, conventional whole wheat flour is also suitable.

In this recipe, we use the liquid in which the chickpeas are pickled, called aquafaba. This provides the extra creamy consistency and is also used as an egg substitute in vegan cooking. For more inspiration for delicious hummus recipes click here!
