Felafel Pita Sandwiches by Melanie Foster serves: 6	No ratings Rating Details Rate this recipe Printable View Print Index Cards

The original veggie burger! Delicious, spiced garbanzo bean patties pan fried and served in a pita pocket.

Ingredients:

4 cups

garbanzo beans, cooked (2 cans)

2 tsp

cumin

1 tsp

turmeric

1 tsp

salt

green onions, minced

1/4 cup

parsley, minced

1/4 cup

water

1 tbsp

lemon juice

1/8 tsp

cayenne pepper

1/3 cup

flour

1 cup

light olive oil, for frying

Directions:

Rinse and drain garbanzo beans. Combine everything except flour and oil in food processor and pulse until uniformly mashed, or mash in a bowl with a fork or potato masher. Add flour and stir until just combined. Heat a heavy skillet over medium heat and add about 3 tbsp oil. Once the oil is hot, drop heaped tablespoonfuls of the batter into the pan, flattening them slightly. Saute about 10 minutes on each side until golden browned and crisp. Add oil as needed. Drain on a paper towel lined plate and keep warm in a 300 degree oven until all the batter is used. Serve in pita bread with lettuce, tomato and a drizzle of lemon juice if desired.
