Allergen Information: Free of Dairy, egg, corn, soy, gluten, grain, sugar, yeast. Can be made nut-free with sunflower seed or other seed based sour cream.
Wash and soak the lentils and mung beans in hot water(enough to cover the lentils) for 15 minutes. If you have time then soak for an hour. Drain, add to blender with all the ingredients and 1 cup water and blend. Blend 2-3 cycles for a smooth batter. (Pink lentils and mung beans are easily available in an Indian store or large stores like Whole foods.)
Heat a pan on medium heat. Grease it if needed. Drop half a ladle of the batter for small tacos, more for larger tacos. Spread with the ladle or by tapping the pan. Drizzle a few drops of oil on the edges. Let cook for 3-5 minutes or until golden at the bottom. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Or use any other soft Tacos.
For the Chickpea Cauliflower filling:
In a large pan, add oil and heat on medium heat. Add onion and cauliflower. Cook for 5-7 minutes until both are golden brown. Add the spices and mix well to coat. Add chickpeas, a Tablespoon of water and salt and mix to coat. Cover and Cook for another 5-7 minutes or until cauliflower is tender crisp. Taste and adjust salt and spice.
Assemble:
Top the Tacos with a generous amount of the filling. Top with fresh salsa, cilantro, then drizzle some sour cream. Add other toppings of choice like sliced Avocados. Serve hot.
Notes
Notes: Split Mung Beans can be substituted with other Split peas or split beans or more red lentils. Soak them for an hour for easier blending. If using whole lentils or whole mung beans, soak for a few hours or overnight. Whole legumes can be used to make crepes as well like this Lentil Rice pizza crust which can also be made on the stove top.Nutrition is for 1 serve
