Falafel | Gluten Free Chickpea Fritter | Kravings

Показать описание

I have to admit, I was never a big Falafel fan growing up in the United Arab Emirates. With the abundance of Lamb, Chicken & Beef Kebabs, the Falafel simply couldn't compete. I have a strong feeling though that recipe will delight meat lovers and vegetarians alike. And, this recipe is also vegan and gluten free. How amazing is this?

Here are the ingredients and steps to make this recipe!
Falafel

250 gms dry Chickpeas
1 cup Onion
4 cloves Garlic
1 tbsp green Chilli
1 cup Parsley
1 cup Coriander
1/2 cup Dill
1/2 cup Mint
1/2 tsp Cinnamon powder
1/4 tsp Clove powder
1 tsp Aleppo Pepper or Chilli powder
1 tsp Cumin powder
1 tbsp each Salt & Pepper
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Gram flour
White Sesame seeds

Soak the chickpeas overnight in water and drain
Add to a food processor with the onion, garlic, green chilli, half the herbs and the spices, salt, pepper and process
Add the other half and continue to process depending on the size of your food processor
Add the baking soda and gram flour
The mixture should be gritty, however, it should be damp and hold together when you form a ball
If it’s not holding, grind a little bit in a smaller food processor some more so it holds everything together.
Form small golf balls, roll in sesame seeds and deep fry for a few minutes
