Falafel (3pcs) Recipe

Falafel Preparation

1. 1

   Soak the Chickpeas

   In a large bowl, cover the dried chickpeas with water and let them soak overnight.

2. 2

   Prepare the Mixture

   Drain and rinse the soaked chickpeas. In a food processor, combine chickpeas, parsley, cilantro, onion, garlic, cumin, coriander, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until a coarse mixture forms.

3. 3

   Form the Falafel Balls

   Using your hands, form the mixture into small balls (about 1.5 inches in diameter).

4. 4

   Fry the Falafel

   Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Once hot, gently place the falafel balls in the oil. Fry until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.

5. 5

   Drain and Serve

   Remove the falafel from the oil and place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your choice of sauce.
