Falafel Patties

15 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb chickpeas, soaked overnight in water
  • 3 garlic cloves, grated
  • 1 cup parsley, freshly chopped
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 3 tablespoons mint leaves, freshly chopped
  • 4 large Brussels sprouts, shredded
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper, freshly ground
  • 4 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1/4 cup flour, for coating the falafel patties

Directions

  1. 1
    Pour the chickpeas into a bowl, cover with water, and soak overnight.
  2. 2
    Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Add them to a food processor with all ingredients except for oil and flour. Pulse until a grainy mixture forms. Scrape down the sides of the food processor frequently to ensure a good mix. Even though there are a lot of ingredients in common, this shouldn't have the same consistency of hummus. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour.
  3. 3
    Add oil to a small pan and raise to medium heat.
  4. 4
    Form the mixture into balls about the size of your palm; flatten out if making patties. Dip in flour, and pat all sides to remove any excess. Cook in pan until brown on all sides, flipping over after a few minutes.
  5. 5
    Serve with tzatziki sauce.
