Falafel Preparation Instructions
1. Soak Chickpeas
Place the dried chickpeas in a bowl and cover with water. Soak overnight (or for at least 8 hours).
2. Make Falafel Mixture
Drain and rinse the soaked chickpeas. In a food processor, combine chickpeas, onion, garlic, parsley, cilantro, cumin, coriander, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until a coarse meal forms, scraping down the sides as needed.
3. Shape the Falafel
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Once chilled, form the mixture into small balls or patties, about 1.5 inches in diameter.
4. Fry the Falafel
Heat olive oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. Fry the falafel in batches until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
5. Serve
Serve the falafel hot with pita bread, hummus, and a side of fresh salad.
