Method

Falafel Preparation

  1. 1

    Soak Chickpeas

    Soak the dried chickpeas in water overnight or for at least 8 hours. Ensure they are fully submerged.

  2. 2

    Blend Ingredients

    Drain the soaked chickpeas and transfer them to a food processor. Add parsley, cilantro, onion, garlic, cumin, coriander, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Blend until a coarse mixture forms.

  3. 3

    Form Balls

    Using your hands, form the mixture into small balls or patties, about the size of a golf ball. Place them on a baking sheet.

  4. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a deep pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Ensure the oil is hot but not smoking.

  5. 5

    Fry Falafel

    Carefully add the falafel balls to the hot oil. Fry them for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Tahini Sauce Preparation

  1. 6

    Mix Ingredients

    In a mixing bowl, combine tahini, lemon juice, water, chopped garlic, salt, and olive oil. Whisk until smooth and creamy.

  2. 7

    Adjust Consistency

    If the sauce is too thick, add additional water, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
