Falafel Ingredients
Method
Preparation Steps
Prepare the Pea Mixture
In a food processor, combine the English peas, fresh mint, garlic, salt, and pepper. Pulse until you have a coarse mixture.
Add Remaining Ingredients
Transfer the pea mixture to a mixing bowl and add the chickpea flour, cumin, paprika, and crumbled feta cheese. Mix until well combined.
Form the Falafel Balls
Using your hands, form the mixture into small balls or patties, about 1.5 inches in diameter.
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Fry the Falafel
Carefully add the falafel balls to the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
Drain and Serve
Remove the falafel from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce or salad.
