Directions:
- Place onion, garlic and pepper flakes in food processor. Pulse until they’re about 1/8-in. big.
- Add beans, parsley, and cilantro and chop until “pieces are about the size of a large pinhead.” You don’t want a puree here. (Thanks, dickrebel.).
- Dump the items from the food processor into a bowl. Stir in salt, cumin, baking powder and flour until well-mixed., but not really a dough.
- Stick it in the fridge, covered, for anywhere from 15 minutes to several hours. The longer the better. (I did it for an hour, and turned out nicely.).
- With your hands, make small falafel hockey pucks about 1 to 1-1/2 inches in diameter and 3/4 of an inch high. (The flat surface will help with the frying.).
- Turn oven to 400ºF.
- Heat 2 Tbsp vegetable oil in a huge ovenproof skillet on medium-high. Fry the pucks for about 3 minutes on the first side, and 2 minutes on the second, until they’re golden brown.
- When finished, stick skillet in oven (or transfer pucks to a Pam-ed aluminum foil lined cookie sheet) and bake for 10-12 minutes.
- Stick four balls in half a pita with tomatoes, green pepper, and onions. Drizzle with tahini sauce.
