Method
- Place all ingredients in a blender and mix until it is part blended but still has texture.
- Add the chick peas to slightly dry the mixture so it’s ready to form into balls
- Season with salt and pepper and do a tester ball of falafel in the deep fat fryer and allow to cook. Test that it holds together before balling the rest of the mixture.
- Separate the mixture and form into balls no bigger than a ping pong ball and deep fry. This mix should take around 2- 3 mins to cook
