Homemade Falafels

This falafel recipe is also courtesy of Muddy Spoon. I usually add more parsley and turmeric than the recipe calls for, but it's delicious either way. This recipe is great served with greek salad, hummus and brown rice.

Ingredients:

2-2 1/2 cups chickpeas (or two cans)

3 cloves garlic, diced

2 tsp. turmeric

1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 sweet onion (about 1/4 cup)

3-6 tbsp. fresh parsley

2-3 tbsp. water

2 tsp. lemon juice

2.5 tbsp. flour

Drizzle of olive oil

Directions:

Combine ingredients in a food processor, (everything except flour) and blend until smooth-ish. Add flour and blend well. When ready to cook, heat a saucepan on medium high. Use wet hands to form patties out of the mixture and saute in a little bit of oil until browned. Makes about 10 small falafels. Enjoy!
