Back when I was still deep-frying my falafel, I would first roll them in a little chickpea flour and that too helped keep them from falling apart. Plus it added a nice skin I enjoyed when eating.
Oh my goodness Louise!
Kudos!
I’m impressed by the fact that the chickpeas don’t actually need cooking. That’s amazing that by only soaking them works perfectly well!
I usually make falafel burgers in the oven and I use canned chickpeas. I always add flour in the mixture and also ground linseeds or chia seeds. I find those ingredients to be the ‘glue’ of the recipe. Obviously in your recipe things work our with only basic ingredients which is amazing!
I’m originally from Cyprus and we never use canned pulses. We always cook from fresh or from dry pulses.
Here in England people uses canned chickpeas (and many other foods) but I’ll definitely search for dry ones and give this recipe a go.
I also loved the green colour, definitely worths putting a good amount of parsley and coriander.
Thank you so much for sharing those amazing recipes. My Tuesdays and Sundays evenings are filled with your new videos. I love you character and how wonderful person you are!
I wish I could meet you one day! 😊
Thank you so much!
I just made this recipe and it was soooo delicious. Thank you so much! I am glad to have found you!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
This is what I’ve been searching for. Thank you! I always knew in the back of my mind that I needed some oil in the recipe but your recipe took all the guesswork out of it. Also, I was definitely over seasoning. I love flavor but thanks for your tip of dialing it down a notch.
Glad it was helpful!
You must have read my mind, I've been looking for a recipe for Falafel in my Ninja, and voila! Perfect. I'm going to try these this week. Love from the UK
I hope you love them!
Can’t wait to try it - I love falafel!
Well made this recipe and they were amazing. Tasted great, firm and stayed together. The boy thing I forgot was the onion, too bad. Well I plan to make them again. I did use the olive oil, at the 1 tablespoon. Being it was optional, I thought to start gradually. My husband that is pretty fussy also enjoyed them.
I'm so glad you enjoyed them!
Ok, im trying this one this weekend.
I hope you love it!
Thanks for the recipe
We only make falafel with raw chickpeas in the Middle East
raw as in fresh and raw or dried?
You can put a have cup of sesame seeds it will take it to the next level
I bet that’s delicious! I’ll add those next time.
Must be falafel season as I just seen a video night before on it. Never had one before.
They are really good, hope you give them a try!
Add the cucumber juice to some mineral water and sip away. Regular water is fine, too.
Great idea!
I probably would add garlic to the dipping sauce……..
You absolutely can do that!
wow! so they retain the crunch. hmmm I may have to get an airfryer. I make these at home and deep fry them just to get that crunch. I tried extra virgin olive oil in the past but it just didn't produce that awesome crunch that I must have! Great video! Keep up the great work!
Hi from Australia; like you I have tried various recipes and they have either been too dry or I can't keep the mixture from falling apart. I'm now keen to try your recipe. Thanks for sharing.
Please let me know what you think!

I am happy to report that your recipe was the best I have used so far and I have tried quite a few. I did find the mixture a little too wet so I'm going to make them again and use either more chick peas or less oil so they are firmer when creating them. Only one fell apart when I put them in the air fryer so that was good. The flavor was great & authentic. Thank you for sharing and I'm looking forward to trying them again.
@@helenwinter2115 I'm so glad you enjoyed them! I found getting the moisture level correct was the hardest part and of course could vary based on brand of ingredients and other things. Definitely adjust things so they are perfect for you!
Thank you for sharing this recipe! I love falafel, and also want to incorporate more plant based foods in my diet. I’ve, like you, tried to make falafel with canned chickpeas without great success. I’ve also tried grocery store versions and they are so dry!! The best way to have falafel in my opinion is in a flatbread with shredded lettuce, tabbouleh, and toum (Lebanese garlic sauce). I would love for you to develop a recipe for toum, as it just requires a blender, tons of garlic, avocado oil or other neutral oil, salt, and lemon juice. The garlic somehow emulsifies and creates a fluffy spread-like consistency.
That sounds amazing, I have never heard of it, but I will look it up!
Could you counter canned chickpeas with some fine breadcrumbs?
I tried to use some dry chickpea flour and it didn't' work.
soaking chick peas overnight is not bad 🤗One would already organise the tomorrows meal; just chuck the dry chickpeas into waterfilled bow. Go to sleep. Wake up! Magic.
Try turning your zester over and scraping the zester against the lemon. This helps you see how much zest you have and it is so much easier
I've had so many people suggest that and for some reason, I just can't do it that way. LOL! Old habits I guess.
Omg, these look amazing! Love the ingredient amounts and temps edited in. Very helpful. My mouth is watering… 😂
Thank you!
Wish there was was a recipe with it ,so is that a whole cup of chick peas or a half cup ,and do you preheat the double dual air fryer ???

@@TheSaltedPepper Thank you!
Total hit, served with charred flat breads.
One question - falafel recipe has white onion listed but not used?
I forgot to use it in the video and I need to update the recipe card to include it. I used a green onion in my test recipe, but white onion will work as well.
Im still thinking they need to be actually browned. Maybe thats ahat happens with air fryer method
They do brown in the air fryer, but maybe not as much as when they are deep fried.
@TheSaltedPepper I have to work on the timing according to my airfryer because I overcooked them, twice; once at the recommended time according to temp and then again with 2 minutes less. Dry dry dry :(
THANKYOU MINE WERE VERY DRY AND FELL APART ! . I FRIED THEM IN THE END. I THINK PUTTING OIL IN AS YOU MIX IS THE KEY . I HAVD TO,PRESSURE COOK ALL PULSES , AS I HAVE DIVERTICULOSIS. I AM STARTING TO EAT MORE PULSES AGAIN . K
Cooking the chick peas is the main issue with them falling apart. Perhaps try adding a little egg white since you have to cook the chick peas and that just might help them hold together.
@The Salted Pepper you mentioned your blender is also processor. What brand is that? I did look in your store, sorry if I missed it.
Who else thought these were weed balls 😂😂😂😂
😂
if they were, they wouldn't taste as delicious as these are sure to be!
You could make a nice profit in Oregon.
Yes me too😂
Ty Weezy !!! Bruh, you have no idea how fast I ran to the comments to see this !!! As soon as I saw the thumbnail I was like nah ...are these what I think they are ? 🤭😏🙈😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

This is a new food for me to try. Please what culture are you thinking of when you eat or serve falafel? Oh Greek?
(Yes I did goggle and learned there is a debate. There is evidence of at least 1,000 years ago in Egypt, but India also has very early evidence of the dish.)
I'm sure there are many cultures who make a version of falafel, this one is probably closest to Mediterranean cuisine.
@@TheSaltedPepper thanks so much. I love new things!
