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

I replaced coriander with parsley as I don't really like coriander.By using uncooked chickpeas, you can enjoy the fluffy texture of deep-fried falafels.I seasoned the chickpea mixture really well with a generous amount of cumin powder. You can replace the parsley with coriander or dill. For 12. Recipe by Kuminchan -
