Falafel Ingredients

Method

Falafel Preparation and Assembly

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chickpeas

    Soak the dried chickpeas in water overnight. Drain and rinse before use.

  2. 2

    Make the Falafel Mixture

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

  3. 3

    Form the Falafel Balls

    Using your hands, form small balls or patties from the falafel mixture, about the size of a golf ball.

  4. 4

    Fry the Falafel

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry the falafel balls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Sandwich

    Slice the Hovan® rolls in half. Add a layer of lettuce and sliced tomato to each roll. Place 2-3 falafel balls in each roll.

  6. 6

    Add the Sauce

    Drizzle tahini sauce over the falafel and close the sandwich. Serve with soup or sides.
