Ingredients
- 400g chickpeas (drained weight), rinsed
- 1 red onion, roughly chopped
- 1 clove of garlic, chopped
- 15g fresh parsley
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- ½ tsp harissa paste
- 2 tbsp plain flour
- 2 tbsp sunflower oil
- 4 pitta breads, toasted
- 200g tomato salsa, to serve
- 120g salad leaves, to serve
Method
Put the chickpeas, red onion, garlic, fresh parsley, ground cumin, ground coriander and harissa paste into a food processor. Season well.
Blitz to a coarse paste: it should hold together but still have some texture. Scrape down the sides once or twice.
Tip into a bowl and stir through the plain flour. Shape the mixture into patties with wet hands.
Heat the sunflower oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Fry the patties for 3 minutes on each side, until golden and crisp.
Warm and split the pitta bread. Fill with the falafel burgers, the tomato salsa and the salad leaves.
