I like adding carrots and ginger to my falafel to give it a little bit of sweetness and extra spice!

Steps

1

Lay chickpeas on paper towels to dry for a couple of hours. If using dry beans, soak overnight, then lay out to dry.
2

Add all ingredients (except for chickpeas and flour) to food processor and pulse. Don't over blend, you do not want a puree, just coarsely blend. Be sure and scrape down the sides periodically. Transfer into medium sized bowl.
3

Add chickpeas to food processor and pulse until it's the same consistency as the other ingredients. Add to your bowl of vegetables and spices.
4

Adding one tbsp of flour at a time, fold ingredients together with a spatula. Then, cover and place in fridge for one hour.
5

Add between 1/4 to 1/2 inch of vegetable oil to frying pan. Make patties and fry on medium heat until deep golden brown on each side.
6

I served mine with a mixture of Greek yogurt and preserved lemons.
