Falafel Bhajia
This is a fusion from the Med and India - via the Middle-East. Falafel & Bhajia are both seasoned with herbs then fried. They're actually very similar recipes already - with Bhajia using Gram Flour (or Besan). The raw mixture also doubles up great as Vegetarian burgers. So just shape into burgers shapes - cook straight in the oven and no frying will be needed!

Add Chickpeas on Food Processor. Pulse a few times until coarse. Add the rest or the mixture. Combine with hands or spoon.

Water hands. Form into Falafel like shapes, dusting with flour. Fry on a low heat until a crust forms, 5-10 minutes. Olive oil is recommended. You can freeze at this stage, just allow to cool first.

To finish cooking, bake in the oven at 180, 15 minutes on each side. Wrap in a pita with salad, or even plain with bread and butter. Tuna can be thrown in as well with some herbs & cream cheese.

Garnish ideas: Taditional Tahini sauce, or Sesame seeds will work, though I haven't tried it. Peanut butter compliments most of the ingredients. Mango Chutney works especially well with the carrots and spinach. A regular salad - Lemon, Tomato, Onion, more Feta & Lettuce leaves are a must, whatever you decide for garnish.
