Falafel (Israeli Deep-fried Chickpea Balls) Falafel (Israeli Deep-fried Chickpea Balls)
I love chickpeas. The falafel I ate at an Israeli fast food restaurant (near where my child was boarding in Kyoto -- not in Israel) was so tasty that I wanted to make it on my own.This makes a large quantity, so either freeze or reduce the amount when cooking. You could use curry powder instead of garam masala. If you're making this for children, you might not want to use cayenne pepper. If it tastes too plain after mixing all ingredients, please add some salt. Recipe by Tomoko kitchen -
Baked Falafel Baked Falafel
Falafel is made from chickpeas or fava beans. You can add flour to the mixture to help it hold together during cooking, but too much flour can ruin the texture and make the falafel too bready. Baking soda softens the chickpeas so they cook more easily and evenly. It's important to let the mixture rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes so it binds together better.
