    I created a similar recipe when living in Costa Rica. I did everything by hand, meaning no food processor. And they came out delicious. Of course it takes more time....for instances all I had was a fork to mash the chickpeas and a serrated steak knife to chop the onions and parsley. So if you have the will, you can always, for the most part, figure out a way around modern appliances. Use your ingenuity and you will be surprised at the results.
    Thank you food wishes for another great video and recipe. I have become addicted to your videos and watch at least one a day.

    This freezes well. I always make a big batch and add the baking soda to only what I will use the day of... I simply add the baking soda to the unthawed mix prior to cooking...In fact I prefer the mix that has been frozen, it seems to be tastier.... IMHO shallow fry method is the best way to cook these 💕 I love falafels especially when Im on a no-meat kick, I've seen vids making these with lentils which I shall try soon...Chef John your my fav cooking show, I love your puns and sense of humour thanks for your videos 🎉

      Is "a whole bunch of garlic" as Chef says equal to 4 cloves? (Although a whole bunch is tooooo much)

    i laughed at the "just ask one of your married friends for their food processor" thing, until it actually came up in conversation, and these falafels are becoming a reality because of that one joke

    John, I have done the same recipe with grated zucchini along with canned chickpeas. Kept the Falafel mixture in the fridge overnight. Then form the balls and fry according to your recipe. They come out great. I served mine with a cabbage coleslaw.
    If you want my recipe, then I can type it in for you. Have a wonderful day.

    I love watching all your videos!. Everything I try comes out excellent and then after I got it down I had my own little speak to it but definitely follow your recipe to a T. And everything is delicious so no need to tell you I've gained a pound or two😳
    And you make it very simple, one thing's for sure sometimes the most simple ingredients as well as recipes are the best. Just want to thank you one thing I'm addicted to are the dolmades I make those all the time and I can't wait to make the falafel!! Just to let you know I really appreciate it your candor as well as your humor.
    Excellent food excellent instruction. Definitely a fan.💯
