Falafel Recipe, How to make crispy fried falafel, Baked Felafel, Air Fried Felafel

Soak 1 cup of dried chickpeas in water overnight.

Rinse and dry the chickpeas, garlic, onion, parsley, salt, and baking soda in a food processor and run for a couple of minutes until they turn into a paste.

Transfer the mixture to a bowl and add 2 tablespoons of cornflour, mixing well to make a tight dough.

Scoop the mixture in a falafel maker or simply make balls and keep aside.

Heat oil in a kadai and gently drop the falafel into the hot oil. Fry for a few minutes until the falafel turns brownish, then remove them onto a paper towel or in a colander to dry out the extra oil.

For baking, scoop and layer the falafel patties on an aluminum/cooking tray that has been lightly oiled and bake in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 7-10 minutes.

For air frying, arrange the falafel in an air fryer basket and air fry for 10 minutes at 200 degrees.

Serve hot falafel with a dip or sauce.
