assistant
To make falafels, you will need the following ingredients: 1 cup of dried chickpeas, 1 onion, finely chopped, 2 cloves of garlic, crushed, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh parsley, 2 tablespoons of plain flour, 2 tablespoons of tahini and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. To begin, soak the chickpeas overnight in cold water. Then, drain and rinse the chickpeas and put them in a food processor. Add the onion, garlic, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, cayenne pepper and parsley and process until the mixture looks like a paste. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, add the flour, tahini and lemon juice and mix to combine. Shape the mixture into small round balls. Heat a pan over medium heat and cook the falafels until they are golden brown, flipping them occasionally. Serve the falafels with your favorite dipping sauce.
