120g dried chickpeas

2 cloves garlic

25g coriander

salt & pepper

1 tsp ground cumin

1 tsp ground cardamon

1/4 tsp baking powder

350ml vegetable oil (for frying)

Chickpeas will need to be soaked overnight. You can do this by placing them in a large bowl and fully covering them with cold water.
Add garlic, coriander, salt, pepper, cumin, cardamon and baking powder to a food processor and blitz until very finely minced. Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Next, gently shape the mix into balls and set aside.
Add oil to a fry pan and bring to a medium-high heat. Fry falafels for about four minutes, making sure both sides are submerged in the oil for 2 minutes.
Transfer to kitchen towel before serving.
