Aquafaba (vegan egg replacement)

Drain the water from a can or jar of chickpeas into in a bowl. Using an electric or hand whisk, whisk the liquid until it forms stiff peaks resembling egg whites. This will usually take around 5 -10 minutes. Tip: if you are having any difficulty, add a few pinches of cream if tartar. You can now use this in lots of recipes that require egg whites.

Don’t forget to save the chickpeas. There are lots of lovely chickpea recipes on Cookpad!
