• 2 cupsdried chickpeas, soaked
• 1 onion, quartered
• 1 bunchparsley
• 1 tbspcumin
• 0.5 cuptahini

Instructions

1. 1

   Pat the dried chickpeas completely dry — moisture is the enemy of crisp.

2. 2

   Dredge in onion then parsley, pressing so the coating grips.

3. 3

   Heat 2 inches of oil to 350°F and fry in small batches so the temperature holds.

4. 4

   Fry until deep golden and cooked through, then drain on a rack — never paper towels.

5. 5

   Season with salt the second it leaves the oil and serve Crispy Falafel with Tahini hot.
