One of the easiest savoury little snacks or salad toppers, or you could roll them up in a flatbread with a generous dollop of tahini or hummus. Whichever way you choose to eat them, these are little nuggets of deliciousness.
I’m obsessed with chickpeas at the moment, actually beans and lentils in general…expect a bean burger coming your way soon! I’m just delighted to have them back in my life again! And until the novelty wears off I will most definitely be incorporating them into all the things.
You can bake these falafel in the oven, but if you have an air fryer its a handy way to speed up the process and ensure they get that little bit of a crispy crust going without the addition of an external crumb..but I think I will have to try that next time!
