Falafel Preparation
1. Soak Chickpeas
Rinse and soak the canned chickpeas in water for at least 2 hours or overnight.
2. Prepare Falafel Mixture
In a food processor, combine the soaked chickpeas, parsley, cilantro, garlic, cumin, coriander, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until the mixture is finely chopped but not pureed.
3. Form Falafel Balls
Using your hands, form the mixture into small balls (about 1.5 inches in diameter). Place them on a tray or plate.
4. Fry Falafel
Heat olive oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Fry the falafel balls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
