If you use canned chickpeas, go ahead to rinse them all.

It's time to form balls!
-
6
I used my hands to form them.

You can do it as I did, but you can also use falafel spoon which is available at an Arabic market or just 2 spoons to form balls.

I was able to make 16 falafels with this recipe.

A point is that it is better not to form a big ball because it can be broken while frying it.
-
10
Heat the oil high (any oil can work.
-
11
I used vegi oil.)
-
12
It should be high heat to make brownish good-looking falafels.
-
13
Place falafels into the oil and fry them until their surface turn into brown.
-
14
I fried 4 pieces at once to avoid falafels from being broken.
-
15
Drain fried falafels on kitchen paper and ready to serve!

(Please try hummus and tahini recipes as well and eat with your falafels.
