FALAFEL
Ingredients:

2 cups dried chickpeas, soaked for 24 hours.
1 shallot or onion
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded
8 garlic cloves
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves
1/2 cup cilantro leaves
2 tsp. cumin powder
2 tsp. ground coriander
1 tsp. ground black pepper
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp. sea salt

Falafel is a delicious street food originating in the Middle East. Traditionally it is deep fried and though I love falafel, I did not previously try to make it at home because of that. Last year my wife bought an air fryer and it occurred to me (after all this time) that I could try to make falafel in it. I finally did it and it came out much better than I expected. Totally doing that again, so this is my recipe.

Preparation:

Place parsley, cilantro, shallot and jalapeño pepper into a food processor.
Add chickpeas and pulse until the chickpeas are finely minced. Do not over do it - the mixture should be coarse, not smooth.

Refrigerate the mixture for 1/2 - 1 hour.

Shape the falafel mixture into small balls, about 1" (2.5 cm) in diameter. Arrange a single layer of falafel balls in your air fryer basket and air-fry for about 15 minutes at 370-380°F (187-193°C). The falafel is done when it's golden brown and crisp.
