Serves: 15 patties
Ingredients
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled
- 1 red onion, peeled and roughly chopped
- ½ c fresh parsley, basil, mint or oreganum (whatever you have)
- 3 c edamame beans, defrosted (or a mix of edamame and chickpeas)
- 2 t cumin
- 1 t coriander
- 3 T chickpea flour
- ½ t salt
- 2 T fresh lemon juice
- olive oil
To Serve (your choice)
- coleslaw
- cucumber, sliced
- tomatoes, sliced
- hummus
- wholegrain wraps (GF if required)
- mayo of your choice or ½ c natural yoghurt, combined with finely chopped mint and lemon juice
- a sprinkling of seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200 C
- To make the falafels, place the garlic, red onion, herbs, edamame (and chickpeas if using), cumin, coriander, chickpea flour, salt, and lemon juice in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. If you don't have a food processor, you could try a nutri bullet. Puree until the mixture is almost completely smooth.
- Brush or spray a baking sheet with some oil. Using a large spoon, scoop out balls of the edamame mixture and compact them with your hands. Place them on the prepared tray and brush or spray the tops with oil.
- Bake the falafel in the oven for 15 minutes, then flip and cook another 10-12 minutes until done and browned on top. They will be quite soft but will firm up slightly when cooking. If you're short of time, alternatively you could cook them in a fry pan in a small amount of oil
- Serve with wraps, coleslaw and anything else you desire. Sprinkle with seeds.
