Felafel

March 31, 2017 by Shasta Willson

NOTE: this recipe is under development. Subbing chickpea flour for wheat to make them gluten free is a bit heavy. My next experiment will be to use some hummous, blended until creamy and fluffy, to see if this balances well.

  • 3 T garbanzo flour (or 1.5T wheat flour + 3T water)
Instructions
  1. Grind the first group of ingredients in a meat grinder or food processor until it is finely chopped but not yet mush. It should hold together when pressed with no large pieces.
  2. Add the second group of ingredients and mix with your hands until thick. Let sit for an hour to help aid cohesion.
  3. Form into flat patties about the size of a large banana slice and fry in sunflower or other oil until toasty brown and cooked in the middle.
Recipe Notes

Notes: these are still too heavy from subbing the chickpea flour. Need to get them lighter...
