Falafel is a Middle Eastern street food that has grown in popularity over the last couple of decades, particularly in the vegetarian and meat-free food scenes. Authentic falafel recipes are made up of chickpeas and/or fava beans, along with garlic & onion, and several herbs and spices. They are then formed into balls or disks and deep-fried in oil before serving as a falafel pita/sandwich.
Ingredients
  • 2 cups ( 400 g) dried chickpeas (not canned or cooked chickpeas)
  • 5 garlic cloves chopped
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 1 cup parsley leaves chopped
  • ½ cup cilantro leaves chopped

  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 ½ tsp sea salt
