METHOD 1: FRIED ON STOVETOP

Step 1: Pour canola (or vegetable) oil to cover about 1 inch of a non-stick skillet. Warm it up to a toasty 350°F.

Step 2: Use a 1 oz cookie scoop to shape those perfect falafel balls.

Step 3: Gently slide the falafels into the sizzling oil. When they don a rich, medium brown coat (roughly 1.5 – 2 mins each side), they’re asking to be flipped.

Step 4: Once crisped to perfection, lift the falafels onto a paper towel. A pinch of salt for that extra oomph!

Step 5: Dig in and savour the flavour!

METHOD 2 : BAKED IN OVEN

Step 1: Crank up your oven to 375°F and lay out some parchment paper on a baking sheet.

Step 2: Mold that falafel mix into delightful little patties.

Step 3: Let them luxuriate in the oven for about 10 minutes on each side. If they’re flaunting a thicker look, give them an extra minute or two to achieve perfection.

Step 4: Once they’re golden and tempting, take them out and sprinkle with that magic touch of salt.

Step 5: Dive in and relish every bite!

Tips & Tricks:

For an extra crisp edge, you can brush a tiny bit of olive oil on the top of each patty before baking.

Size matters! If you like your falafels with a softer center, make them slightly thicker. For a crisper bite throughout, keep ’em thin.

Perfect Pair: Tahini dressing drizzled on top or on the side elevates the falafel experience. Creamy and nutty, it complements the falafel’s earthy flavours.
