Ingredients
 

  • 9 ounces (250 g) whole wheat berries, soaked
  • 1 onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 2 tbsp ground flax seeds
  • 2 tbsp ground sesame seeds
  • 1 tbsp dry parsley
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 2 tsp curry powder
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp fenugreek
  • salt to taste
  • several twists freshly ground black pepper
  • ¼ cup water

Instructions
 

  • Soak the whole wheat kernels in plenty of water for 12 hours. Drain and rinse them.
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C ( 350°F).
  • Place all ingredients in a food processor until finely chopped. The result should be a smooth and sticky mixture.
  • With wet hands take about one full tablespoon of the mixture and shape it into the desired form.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the nuggets.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes.

Notes

  • I prefer to sprout the kernels for another 12- 24 hours as they become softer and flavorful.
  • You may add some more water to the mixture to chop it easily. But it
    can become too loose to shape it later, so if this happens you may add
    one or two tablespoons chickpea flour or ground flax seeds as they soak
    the excess liquid.
