Falafel with Lemon-Tahini Drizzle
Pan-seared chickpea and hemp heart falafel served with a tangy lemon-tahini yogurt sauce for a satisfyingly crunchy texture.
INGREDIENTS
0.75 cup Canned chickpeas
1 tbsp Hemp hearts
0.5 cup Fresh parsley
0.5 cup Fresh cilantro
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Ground cumin
0.5 tsp Ground coriander
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.75 cup Plain Greek yogurt
0.5 tsp Tahini
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tbsp Water
PREPARATION
Place the drained chickpeas, hemp hearts, parsley, cilantro, garlic, cumin, coriander, sea salt, and black pepper into a food processor.
Pulse the mixture until it is finely chopped and holds together when pinched, ensuring it remains slightly coarse rather than a smooth paste.
Divide the mixture and form into 4 small, flat patties about half an inch thick.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the falafel patties to the skillet and cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side until they are deeply golden and crispy.
While the falafel cooks, whisk together the Greek yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, and water in a small bowl until the sauce is smooth and pourable.
Plate the warm falafel and drizzle the lemon-tahini sauce generously over the top before serving.
