Tip

Note :  if the mixture is still sticky, you can add a tablespoon of fresh breadcrumbs.  I use Panko breadcrumbs to coat as it gives the falafels a lovely crunchy coating. 

You can also leave out the chilli if you want to serve to the kiddies. 

Don't forget you can do this with any vegetable you have (sweet potato, potato, peas, etc.)  You can even add parmesan cheese (30g).   Just make sure you add the can of chickpeas!!

For the Gluten free option - add brown rice flour, gluten free plain flour, chickpea flour, gluten free fresh breadcrumbs.
