These are tasty and good for you as well. The potatoes help keep the mixture together making it possible to bake the patties instead of frying! Ingredients:
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed |
1 large potato, peeled and diced |
1 onion, finely chopped |
1/2 cup parsley, chopped |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 teaspoon sesame oil |
1 teaspoon cumin |
1/2 teaspoon turmeric |
1/2 teaspoon coriander |
2 teaspoons lemon juice |
6 pita bread rounds |
sliced tomato (optional) |
chopped green onion (optional) |
shredded lettuce (optional) |
black olives (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. Steam the potatoes until just barely tender.
3. Mash together the potatoes; garbanzo beans and the garlic in a bowl.
4. Add onion, parsley, garlic, olive oil, sesame oil, cumin, turmeric, coriander, and lemon juice. Mix well.
5. Roll the mixture into small golf ball sized balls. Place the balls on a non stick baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Bake for 15 minutes. Flip the balls over and bake for another 15 minutes.
6. To serve, open each pita and fill with 2-3 falafel patties then top with desired toppings from the list above. Add a spoonful of either our Heart Healthy Hummus or Easy Gyro Sauce.
