Looking for a falafel recipe

[Guest guest]

I had falafel for the first time in Jerusalem in February. It was

delicious. Christine's post reminded me that I am looking for a

quicky and easy gf falafel recipe. All the recipes I have found

without flour require soaking the dry beans overnight and then

grinding them in a food processor or meat grindern. Does anyone have

a quicker recipe?

Hi Joanne,

 

Well, I spent quite a bit of time this morning looking through the

search engine for GF falafel, and didn't really have any success. I found

one recipe that used dried fava beans instead of garbanzo beans, but the

process looked too involved for what you are looking for (soaking the beans

and grinding them). I hope I will be able to find a GF mix sometime, because

I'm really going to miss falafels if I don't! I used to love to go to Greek

restaurants, and I always ordered the falafel and hummus plate. So now that

I'm GF, of course the pita bread and falafel are out, and the only thing I'm

down to is hummus, which doesn't doesn't sound too appetizing all by itself

on a plate I still eat hummus at home now, but I serve it with rice or

corn cakes, or rice pancakes instead of the pita. It's also good with fresh

veggies to dip.

 

Let me know if you find out anything,

 

 

Thanks,

 

Christine
