Instructions

Mix all ingredients together.
Keep sealed in container or plastic bag until ready to use.

To make falafel:

Add 4 ounces of water to the mixture of dry ingredients. Allow to rest for 10 to 20 minutes before forming into patties or balls.
Fry in heated oil for about 3 to 4 minutes until lightly browned. Drain on paper towel.
Serve as desired. I like to eat them in a pita with tzatziki sauce, lettuce, tomato and sliced cucumber. They're also great as appetizers served with a bleu cheese dip (recipe to come).

Notes

You can shape these into balls, patties, croquettes, or really any shape you like.
