Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup yellow split peas rinsed and soaked overnight and throughly drained and patted dry, dried
  • 1 yellow onion chopped, medium
  • 1/2 cup cilantro chopped, fresh
  • 1 red chili pepper , chopped (remove seeds if you prefer it not spicy)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Turmeric ground
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin ground
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 2 teaspoons ginger root fresh, minced
  • 3 cloves garlic , minced
  • cooking oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Place all of the ingredients in a food processor. Make sure the peas have been thoroughly drained otherwise the mixture will be too wet. Pulse the ingredients to form a semi-smooth and gritty paste. Do not over-process.Form the mixture into patties (they will very moist). Cover and refrigerate the patties for at least 3 hours but preferably or overnight to give the flavors time to develop.
  2. Heat some oil in a frying pan and fry the patties on both sides until golden brown.Serve with your choice of dipping sauce like our Sweet Chili Sauce or use as a Burmese-style falafel with pita bread, veggies, tahini, and yogurt sauce.This makes about 16 two-inch patties.
