FALAFEL SEASONING

This aromatic falafel spice blend combines coriander seeds, coriander leaves, parsley, chives, cayenne pepper, cumin and pepper to capture the authentic taste of the Middle East. With this blend, making falafel is child’s play – a classic of Middle Eastern cuisine.

Spicy, fresh, with a slightly hot and earthy note.

Soak 2 cups of dried chickpeas in water overnight. Then purée them in a blender with 4 teaspoons of the spice blend, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1 small onion, 2 garlic cloves and 1 tablespoon of water. Shape into small balls and deep-fry until golden brown. Perfect as a side dish, as a snack or in a wrap with fresh vegetables and tahini sauce.

Falafel are among the best-known dishes of the Middle East and are made from chickpeas or fava beans. They are traditionally served as street food and are now an integral part of vegetarian cuisine worldwide.
