    List of Ingredients




    1 cup dried peeled fava beans (7 ounces), soaked overnight
    3/4 cup dried chickpeas, soaked overnight
    1 small onion, finely chopped
    1/3 cup minced flat-leaf parsley
    2 tablespoons minced cilantro
    1 garlic clove, minced
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1 teaspoon kosher salt
    3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
    Pinch of crushed red pepper
    3 tablespoons water
    2 tsp olive oil or canola oil, for frying

    Recipe



    Drain and rinse the favas and chickpeas and put them in a food processor. Add the onion, parsley, cilantro, garlic, baking powder, salt, cumin and crushed red pepper. Pulse, scraping down the side of the bowl, to form a coarse paste. Add the water and process until the mixture is gritty but fine and brilliant green. Scrape the paste into a bowl.

    In a medium saucepan, heat oil. Scoop rounded tablespoons of the falafel mixture into the hot oil and fry in small batches until browned and crisp, about 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels set over a wire rack and serve hot.
