INGREDIENTS
1 cup black beans; cooked, rinsed and drained [236cc]. using pinto 1/4 cup chickpea flour [60 cc]. - don't have using 1/2 cup TVP and 1/2 Farofa
1 egg 1/2 cup onions, minced [120cc] 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 tablespoon cilantro or parsley, chopped [15cc] 1 teaspoon cumin [5cc] 1 teaspoon coriander, ground [5cc] 1/2 teaspoon salt [2.5cc] 1/4 teaspoon black pepper [1.25cc] Optional: 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (Canola, olive oil, etc) [30ml] DIRECTIONS Preheat oven to 375 F or 190 C. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper. Optionally, oil it to make a crispier crust. Combine all ingredients except the oil and mash until beans are mostly broken and the ingredients are thoroughly mixed. Stir in the oil if using. The oil helps with texture and crispness but can be left out. Spoon out the mixture on to the baking sheet to form balls about 1 inch in diameter. Try to place them evenly, leaving about 1 inch of space separating each falafel. Bake for 30 minutes. Optionally, you can flip the falafel at the 15 minute mark to ensure they brown evenly. Let cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pan and serving.
