Soak chickpeas overnight. Next morning wash the chickpeas and grind coarsely in the food processor or grinder. Take out in a bowl
Grind the onion, garlic, chilli and parsley in the food processor/mini chopper and add to the ground chickpeas. Then add salt, chilli powder, cumin powder and coriander powder. Mix well with soft hands
Then heat oil in a kadhai. Let it heat completely and then lower the flame. Make small tikkis with the falafel mix and add to the heated oil. Fry till both sides are nice golden in colour. Serve hot with pita bread or simply homemade rotis, salad and Yoghurt dip. I have made small chapatis for serving.
