Directions:
- Cover chickpeas with 3 times their volume of water; place them in the refrigerator over night.
- Drain chickpeas and combine them with all other ingredients in a food processor; grind until almost smooth. Form into balls or patties no more than 1/2 thick; each should be about 1/2 ounce.
- To fry, heat 2 canola oil or sunflower oil to 350F in a deep heavy skillet. Using a slotted spoon or spider, lower falafel balls carefully into hot oil. Cook about 2 minutes on each side, until brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
- To bake, preheat oven to 375°F Line a baking sheet with Silpat or parchment and brush with olive oil. Arrange falafel balls and bake about 6 minutes, turning once.
- Serve 3 pieces per portion. Place into a pita and serve with shredded lettuce, diced tomato and cucumber, and tahini sauce.
