Servings: persons

2 (15 -15 1/2 ounce) cans garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
2 teaspoons minced garlic
3 dashes Tabasco sauce (optional)
1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
1/2 tablespoon dried parsley
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg white
2 egg whites
sunflower oil (for deep frying)
canola oil (for deep frying)

1
Put all the ingredients except the oils in a food processor and pulse until just combined; do not over mix.
2
Remove the blade and, using a measuring spoon, scoop out level tablespoons of the mixture onto a plate covered with wax paper or coated with butter spray until you have approximately 30 little balls. Can be prepared up until this point and refrigerated until dinner time.
3
Warm the combination of sunflower and canola oil in a deep fryer (recommended) or in a heavy skillet. One at a time, drop 10 of the chick pea balls into the oil and fry for about 1-2 minutes, until they're golden brown and nice and crisp on the outside.
4
Remove with a slotted spoon onto a paper towel lined plate and keep warm in a 250 degree oven while you repeat the process two more times. Spray the fritters with butter topping and serve.
