By now, everyone and their mom knows and loves falafel.
And what’s not to love?
It’s the crispiest, yummiest nugget of true vegan goodness (it ain’t no meat imitation!
Carlene Thomas/Eat This, Not That!
), striking the balance of fast food that’s good for you.
It will retain its crispy outside, soft inside texture and come out perfectly cooked.
To serve, put on a salad or over chopped vegetables, or stuff inside a hot pita.
But you already know this.
This slightly dries out the chickpeas, making the falafel mix less mushy.
