Tip

This recipe can be frozen without the baking powder. Thaw it out, bring it to room temperature and then add baking powder, leave for ten minutes, shape and then cook.

For best results, shape patties with wet hands to avoid sticking. Oil should be enough to allow Falafel to float upon cooking.
