Baked falafel balls are best served hot and straight from the oven, but you may also prepare them ahead of time and take them to the office or for a day trip.
Unlike fried falafel balls made of chickpeas that have only been soaked, this uses pre-cooked chickpeas. Soak and cook dried chickpeas (see Spicy Chickpeas recipe) or use pre-cooked or frozen chickpeas.
• 2 cups cooked chickpeas + 3tbsp of the cooking liquid
• 1 cup pistachio nuts
• 2 garlic cloves, chopped
• ½ red onion
• ½ bunch parsley, coriander, or a mixture of both
• 1 ½ tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp ground coriander seeds
• 1 tbsp chickpea flour or lentil flour or white flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp sea salt
• Preheat the oven to 180C/Gas4 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Pulse the chickpeas with the rest of the ingredients in a food processor until they form into a sticky paste.
• With wet palms, shape the mixture into balls the size of ping-pong balls. Place on the baking sheet and flatten the balls slightly.
• Bake for about 30 minutes until the balls are set and lightly golden.
Serve with tahini (sesame seed paste), chopped tomatoes, and roasted peppers.
• Makes 30 balls of baked falafel balls with pistachios and herbs

• Spelt and Seed Crackers
