Falafel

 

1 lb. chickpeas, dried

2 medium onions, quartered

2 large cloves garlic, chopped

1 bunch parsley, large stems removed

2 tsp. ground cumin

2 tsp. ground coriander

1/2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. pepper

2 cups oil (for frying)

 

Combine the chick peas, onion, garlic, parsley, cumin,

coriander, baking powder, salt and pepper in a

blender.

 

Grind until mixture becomes very smooth (it helps if

you partially chop, or dice the ingredients before

you put them in the blender).

 

Let paste rest for 30 minutes.

 

Take walnut-sized lumps and make round, flatpatties.

Let the patties rest for about 15 minutes to preserve

their shape.

 

Heat oil in a deep pan so that the patties can be

submerged. Fry the patties until golden brown.

 

Place them on a plate covered with paper towels to

absorb excess oil.
