Total time
 
Cuisine: raw cuisine
Serves: 16-18 falafels
Ingredients
  • 3 cups Sprouted Garbanzo Beans (chickpeas, I used 2 big cups)
  • 1 cup Chopped Onion (used ½ really big onion)
  • 2 Cloves Garlic
  • 1 cup Sunflower Seeds, ground to a powder
  • ½ cup ground flax seeds
  • ¼ cup Lemon Juice
  • ¼ cup Parsley
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 2 tsp fresh coriander/cilantro
  • 3 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tbsp Nama Shoyu ( I did not have this, so just did not add it)
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, add the ground sunflower seeds, flax seeds, ground cumin.
  2. In your food processor, finely chop the 2 cloves of garlic.
  3. Add the sprouted garbanzo beans in food processor with garlic. Process until a mash is achieved. Remove to bowl with sunflower seeds.
  4. Chop onion in food processor, pulsing until a very fine chop in achieved. Place in bowl with garbanzo bean mixture.
  5. Chop parsley and cilantro and add along with remaining ingredients to the chickpea mixture. Combine well.
  6. Shape into golf sized balls and dehydrate, beginning at 140 degrees for 1 hour and then reducing heat to 116 for 4 to 6 hours. They should be crispy on the outside but still a little soft on the inside. ( I did not use the dehydrater since I don't have one! They were still good raw)
