Falafel Balls

January 5, 2008 by Alison

Ingredients

2 cups presoaked dried chick peas (place chick peas in a large bowl, cover with water and soak overnight)
Handful of chopped parsley
Handful of chopped cilantro
4 cloves garlic
½ to 1 teaspoon of cumin
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teasspoon baking powder
6 -8 tablespoons flour

Directions

In a food processor fitted with a steel blade, blend chick peas, parsley, cilantro, cumin, garlic and salt. Do not over process. Transfer mixture to a bowl and mix in flour and baking powder. Form quickly into round balls and drop 6 at a time into the hot oil. If the mixture sticks to your hands, add a bit more flour. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate and cool. “Fresh freeze” on a baking sheet until frozen and transfer to zip loc bags until ready to re-heat.
