Well made this recipe and they were amazing. Tasted great, firm and stayed together. The boy thing I forgot was the onion, too bad. Well I plan to make them again. I did use the olive oil, at the 1 tablespoon. Being it was optional, I thought to start gradually. My husband that is pretty fussy also enjoyed them.
Oh my goodness Elly! Kudos! I’m impressed by the fact that the chickpeas don’t actually need cooking. That’s amazing that by only soaking them works perfectly well! I usually make falafel burgers in the oven and I use canned chickpeas. I always add flour in the mixture and also ground linseeds or chia seeds. I find those ingredients to be the ‘glue’ of the recipe. Obviously in your recipe things work our with only basic ingredients which is amazing! I’m originally from Cyprus and we never use canned pulses. We always cook from fresh or from dry pulses. Here in England people uses canned chickpeas (and many other foods) but I’ll definitely search for dry ones and give this recipe a go. I also loved the green colour, definitely worths putting a good amount of parsley and coriander. Thank you so much for sharing those amazing recipes. My Tuesdays and Sundays evenings are filled with your new videos. I love you character and how wonderful person you are! I wish I could meet you one day! 😊
Thank you for sharing this recipe! I love falafel, and also want to incorporate more plant based foods in my diet. I’ve, like you, tried to make falafel with canned chickpeas without great success. I’ve also tried grocery store versions and they are so dry!! The best way to have falafel in my opinion is in a flatbread with shredded lettuce, tabbouleh, and toum (Lebanese garlic sauce). I would love for you to develop a recipe for toum, as it just requires a blender, tons of garlic, avocado oil or other neutral oil, salt, and lemon juice. The garlic somehow emulsifies and creates a fluffy spread-like consistency.
This is a new food for me to try. Please what culture are you thinking of when you eat or serve falafel? Oh Greek?
(Yes I did goggle and learned there is a debate. There is evidence of at least 1,000 years ago in Egypt, but India also has very early evidence of the dish.)
You must have read my mind, I've been looking for a recipe for Falafel in my Ninja, and voila! Perfect. I'm going to try these this week. Love from the UK
Ok, im trying this one this weekend.

I probably would add garlic to the dipping sauce……..
I just made this recipe and it was soooo delicious. Thank you so much! I am glad to have found you!
Total hit, served with charred flat breads.
One question – falafel recipe has white onion listed but not used?
Can’t wait to try it – I love falafel!
Could you counter canned chickpeas with some fine breadcrumbs?
Must be falafel season as I just seen a video night before on it. Never had one before.
😘👍
You can put a have cup of sesame seeds it will take it to the next level

Try turning your zester over and scraping the zester against the lemon. This helps you see how much zest you have and it is so much easier

@The Salted Pepper you mentioned your blender is also processor. What brand is that? I did look in your store, sorry if I missed it.
