Falafel Lebih Baik Dari Restoran (Vegan & Bebas Gluten)

Ingredients

11 servings

4 cups stemmed and torn collard greens ((one bunch // or swiss chard))
1 15 -ounce can chickpeas ((rinsed and drained))
3 large cloves garlic ((chopped))
1 1/2 Tbsp tahini
1 1/2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/4 tsp cumin
1 pinch each sea salt and black pepper
3 -4 Tbsp oat flour ((ground from gluten-free oats))
~4 Tbsp avocado or olive oil ((for cooking))

Instructions

Add collard greens, chickpeas, garlic, tahini, lemon juice, cumin, and a healthy pinch each salt and pepper to a food processor and mix to combine (see photo).
Once well incorporated, transfer to a mixing bowl and stir in oat flour 1 Tbsp at a time until the mixture is thick enough to handle – about 3-4 Tbsp (as original recipe is written).
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. I added more salt, pepper, and lemon juice, and a touch more tahini.
Heat a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat and add 2 Tbsp oil at a time. Swirl to coat pan.
Add 4 falafel (or however many will fit very comfortably) to the pan at a time.
Check at the 1-2 minute mark to ensure they’re not browning too quickly. If they are, slightly reduce heat. Flip once deep golden brown – about 3-4 minutes.
Cook until the underside is golden brown as well.
Serve immediately with hummus and paprika or inside a pita with garlic sauce or hummus.
Will store in the fridge, layered with parchment paper in an airtight container for 4-5 days. Freeze up to 1 month.
