Falafel Wrap

Ingredients

• •2 cans (15 oz each) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• •1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
• •1/2 cup onion, chopped
• •3 cloves garlic, minced
• •1/3 cup flour
• •1 teaspoon ground cumin
• •1/2 teaspoon salt
• •1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• •2 cups vegetable oil for frying
• •4 pita breads
• •1/2 cup tahini sauce
• •2 cups mixed fresh vegetables (tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce)

Directions

1. 1Combine chickpeas, parsley, onion, garlic, flour, cumin, salt, and cayenne in a food processor until mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
2. 2Form mixture into 12-16 balls and flatten slightly into patties.
3. 3Heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F and fry falafel 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown, then drain on paper towels.
4. 4Warm pita breads in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side.
5. 5Spread tahini sauce inside each pita, then fill with falafel, tomatoes, cucumbers, and lettuce.
6. 6Wrap in foil and serve immediately.

💡 Falafel wraps should be assembled only after fried falafel has drained; trapped oil plus tahini quickly softens the bread.
