Easy, Herb-Packed Falafel
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Well, these turned out amazing, better than any falafel I’ve eaten before." - Verified Serious Eater

Falafel often has good flavor, but a pasty, heavy texture. What we're after is falafel that's shatteringly crisp on the outside and light, fluffy, almost crumbly on the inside, while still remaining very moist. Light enough that the balls can be eaten completely on their own without having to be shoved into a sandwich full of ingredients designed to distract you from their typical mushiness. (Of course, if you want them in a sandwich, they should hold up in there just as well.) We like our falafel to taste of chickpeas, but also to be packed with herb and spice flavor. Falafel that needs only simple condiments—tahini and hot sauce—to taste great.
