Falafel Sliders

• Appetizers

Posted on July 5, 2015 By Nina Safar @thekosherkitch

Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups garbanzo beans (cooked chickpeas from a can)
1 small bunch parsley (about 1 cup chopped)
1 small bunch cilantro (about 1 cup chopped)
1/2 t salt
1/4 t chili powder or cayenne pepper
2 t cumin
2 T flour

Directions:
Combine ingredients in a food processor until a paste forms. (it’s ok if it’s slightly chunky that adds to the texture of the falafel) The flour is meant to bind the ingredients and hold it together. If it falls apart when frying up add more flour to the batter. Using an ice cream scooper, fry up balls of falafel mixture in a small amount of oil until both sides are lightly browned. (flatten down the ball gently when you flip it over to cook the other side this will create the burger shape) Serve with hummus on slider buns. Optional, add sweet chili sauce!
