Falafel is a traditional Middle Eastern deep fried Patty shaped Fritters made with either Chickpeas or Broad beans or both. These are made with a ground coarse paste made with the above. They are crispy on the outside and soft and herby on the inside.
Made easily with a few selected ingredients, these make for an excellent option for a worthwhile and great Snack.
In these beautiful looking Falafel, I have used Lima beans or Butter Beans along with Chickpeas to lend that an innovative twist from my side. The rest of the recipe remains the same and has not been compromised with. That's all. The overall final look and the texture both turned out just right. Let's begin with the recipe.

Topped up with the Middle Eastern Herb Sumac after frying makes that unique difference to these little beauties. Sumac is sprinkled generously on these immediately after frying so that they get coated with them while they are still piping hot.

Relish these yummy Fritters on any given day with your loved ones and families at Tea-time. You will just love these melt in mouth, soft, super spongy, and fluffy Falafel to the core.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Steps

35-40 minutes

1

Wash and soak dry chickpeas in enough water overnight. It is important to do so. Next day, blend it to a little bit of coarse paste. Add green chillies or red chilli flakes, onion, parsley, or coriander leaves and salt to it while doing so. Mix well and keep aside. The batter should be thick. Therefore use water accordingly. I added some sesame seeds and sumac in the batter.

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
