Chickpea Falafel

Falafel is easy. These ones are a can of chickpeas, a couple spring onions, a chili, couple cloves garlic, a big handful of parsley/coriander, salt, cumin, coriander seed and paprika to taste, blended with olive oil (about a tablespoon) until smooth in a food processor. Shaped into balls like you were making cookies, and flattened on a baking tray, then baked at 180c for about 20 minutes. Simple.

 

Some roast beetroot alongside it, a babaganoush, and some tzatziki.

Oh, and we had some cheese which needed eating, so why not?
