Falafel Ingredients

Method

Falafel Preparation

  1. 1

    Soak Chickpeas

    Soak the dried chickpeas in water overnight or for at least 8 hours. Drain and rinse.

  2. 2

    Make Falafel Mixture

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

  3. 3

    Form Falafel Balls

    Using wet hands, form the mixture into small balls or patties, about the size of a golf ball.

  4. 4

    Fry Falafel

    In a deep skillet or pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Fry the falafel balls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
