Pan-Fried Falafel

I love falafel, but I don’t deep-fry them. This is how I make them in a pan. Serve with warm pitas, tzatziki, and your favorite diced vegetables. Enjoy!!!

Step: 1

Place chickpeas in a food processor; puree to a thick paste.

Step: 2

Place onion, parsley, and garlic in the food processor; puree with chickpeas until combined. Transfer to a bowl.

Step: 3

Whisk egg, cumin, coriander, salt, baking powder, lemon juice, black pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl.

Step: 4

Stir egg mixture and 1 tablespoon olive oil into chickpea mixture until well mixed.

Step: 5

Slowly stir bread crumbs into chickpea mixture until it holds together but is not sticky. Adjust with more or less bread crumbs as needed.

Step: 6

Form mixture into balls and flatten into small patties.

Step: 7

Pour olive oil to 1 inch deep in a large cast iron skillet; place over medium-high heat.

Step: 8

Fry patties in hot oil until browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
