Falafel is super easy and fast!
A couple of cups of cooked garbanzos (or you can use canned if youre in a rush)
1 med. sized diced onion
a good handfull of fresh parsley
Juice from 1 lemon or so
a teeny clove of garlic
a good large pinch of turmeric
salt
a good pinch of sesame seeds
paprika
ground cumin
and a scant 1/4 cup of flour (this is soo important.. if you dont use the flour they fall apart when you are cooking)You can either mash everything up in a bowl (the bottom of a glass works really well)
or pop everything in the food processor. all the spices are to taste.. if it tastes good raw.. it will taste good cooked! |

i just got back from studying in spain where i pretty much lived off of falafels...the ones i had there had couscous in them as well, and it tasted great! not sure about the exact recipe, but messing around with the idea might produce some tasty results! |

Ummmm, what do you do after you mash all the stuff up?Cooking time? HOW to cook it? (bake or deep fry?) What temp?
I was also wondering if I can just use gram flour to replace grinding the chickpeas?

deep fry, if you replace the chick peas they are not falfels ~s~ |

I know that they wouldn't be considered falafels, but if there is a substitute for chickpeas please post I just don't like the consistency of chickpeas, even in hummus (I am just weird I guess) thank you------------------
