Got everything ready? Let's go!
Peel the potatoes and boil them in salted water.
For the meatballs: soak the Veganz soy granules in hot salted water for approx. 10 minutes. Pour the excess soaking water through a strainer into a mixing bowl. Add the chickpea flour, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, allspice, paprika, nutmeg, marjoram, and onion powder and mix everything together. Crush the capers, finely chop the parsley, and fold both into the mixture. The mixture should now be malleable. If the mixture is too wet or too dry, add a bit of breadcrumbs or water as needed. Allow to stand for about 10 minutes.
Heat the water with the vegetable broth powder and the bay leaves to a simmer. Form 8 equally sized meatballs from the mixture and place them in the simmering water for approx. 20 minutes. Remove the meatballs from the water and keep warm.
For the sauce: melt the margarine in a saucepan, slowly add the flour while stirring vigorously to avoid lumps. Slowly add about 4 ladles (1/2 litre) of the broth to the flour and butter mixture and stir vigorously. Add the vegan cream alternative, lemon juice, sugar, capers, and caper brine and bring to a boil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Arrange the potatoes, meatballs, and sauce together on a plate and serve hot. Bon appetit!
