Directions:
- Place the chickpeas in a bowl, cover with cold water and leave to soak overnight. Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then place in a saucepan and cover with cold water; Bring to a boil and boil rapidly for 10 minutes, then reduce heat and simmer for 1 1/2-2 hours until tender (Skip this step if you're using canned chickpeas, but make sure you rinse them well to remove any excess salt).
- Meanwhile, make the tahini yogurt dip. Mix together the tahini, yogurt, 1 tsp cayenne pepper and 1 tbsp mint in a small bowl. Sprinkle the (1, finely chopped) scallion and a dash of cayenne pepper on top and chill until required.
- Combine the chickpeas with the garlic, chile, ground spices, herbs, scallions and seasoning, then mix in the egg. Place in a food processor and blend until the mixture forms a coarse paste. If the paste seems too soft, chill it for 30 minutes.
- Form the chilled chickpea paste into 12 patties with your hands, then roll each one in the sesame seeds to coat thoroughly.
- Heat enough oil to cover the base of a large frying pan. Fry the falafel, in batches if necessary, for 6 minutes, turning once.
