Falafel

Falafel
Ingredients
  1. 2 cans chick peas, smashed
  2. 4 garlic cloves, dice finely
  3. 2 tsp cumin
  4. 1 tsp tumeric
  5. 3/4 cup onion, dice finely
  6. 1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped finely
  7. 1/4 cup water
  8. 2 Tbs lemon juice
  9. cayenne pepper
  10. flour
  11. oil for frying
Instructions
  1. Mix all the ingredients. Add just enough flour to hold the mixture together.
  2. (It seems like a lot of fresh parsley but it makes the falafel light, not dense)
  3. Form into 2" to 4" balls.
  4. Cook in hot oil, either a deep fryer or frying pan until golden brown.
  5. Makes great falafel sandwiches in pita bread with tahini sauce, cucumbers, lettuce and tomato.
Notes
  1. Credit goes to Larry Jennings, may he rest in peace. He was a great guy and these are the best falafel I've ever tastes.
