INGREDIENTS
1.5 cups Cooked Chickpeas
2 large Egg Whites
1 tablespoon Tahini
1 cup Mixed Fresh Greens
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes (halved)
1/2 cup Cucumber (sliced)
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Cilantro, chopped)
2 tablespoons Onion (finely chopped)
2 cloves Garlic (minced)
1 teaspoon Spices (Cumin & Coriander blend)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a food processor, combine the cooked chickpeas, egg whites, fresh herbs, onion, garlic, and spices. Pulse until just combined, keeping some texture for a crunchy bite.
Season the mixture with salt and pepper, then form into small balls or patties, about the size of a golf ball.
Place the falafel on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the exterior is golden and crisp.
While the falafel bakes, prepare the creamy tahini sauce by gently stirring the tahini with a bit of warm water and a squeeze of lemon if desired, until smooth and pourable.
Assemble a fresh herb salad by tossing the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber in a bowl. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
Plate the crispy falafel alongside the salad and drizzle the creamy tahini sauce over the falafel or serve on the side for dipping.
