    Actually the way you made them in my this video is very similar to the way ega (عجة) a breakfast staple is made authentically in the streets of Egypt. The street vendors use the batter for the falafel and mix it with eggs, then shape it into large, round patties and pan-fry them. It's then eaten with pita bread, tomatoes, and tahini sauce.

    If you ever develop a non-deep fried version of sweet and sour chicken, please post it up. I tried one baked version but it didn't really come close to the crispiness and unctuousness of the deep fried version.

    Looks great (as usual). One comment if I may. When I try to copy and paste the recipe into Word, the result is one continuous line, that is there is no normal spacing. An example:

    1 Tbsp pomegranate molasses 1 garlic clove, sliced1 garlic clove, sliced25g parsley, cilantro, mint, dill, or tarragon (any combination)1 heaping tsp Smoked paprika1 heaping tsp coriander175g carrots, sliced 1/4 inch thick and cooked in 2 Tbsp olive oil with a pinch of salt in a small covered pan stirring occasionally until tender and golden brown

    Is there a way you could add spacing when needed? Many thanks,
    Cheers,
    Peter

    Just watched this video, and already soaking the chickpeas! I'm planning to try with beetroots instead of carrots this time, because that's what I've got at the moment.

    ETA: the verdict is that this recipe is delicious and definitely a keeper! Beetroot works extremely well. Will try with carrots next time 🙂
