Lynda’s Favorite Falafel

Lynda’s Favorite Falafel

Lynda and Bill strategized over a meal of falafel and all the trimmings in a nearly empty restaurant in Turkey. Our family has falafel on our regular rotation of meals. We especially love it during our Daniel Fast because it's purely vegan and a fantastic protein in any meal.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup dried chick peas not canned
  • 1 ea shallot or 1/2 sweet onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 cup fresh parsley
  • 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro
  • 1 tsp salt Kosher or sea salt is best
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
  • 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • vegetable oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • Cover the dried chick peas with about 3 inches of water and soak overnight. Rinse and pat dry.
  • Dice the garlic and the shallot. Place all ingredients except the oil into a food processor. Pulse the mixture until it’s well minced and mixed. You’re not looking for a puree.
  • Cover and refrigerate for about 30 minutes. You can make them ahead of time and refrigerate at this point for 3 days.
  • Fill pan with at least an inch of oil. Heat to 375 degrees F.
  • Scoop out 1 1/2 TBS of the mixture and shape into a ball, then flatten into a thick, rounded disc. Gently slip into the hot oil and cook until the bottom and sides are brown – about 3-4 minutes. Turn and cook another 2-3 minutes until the other side is brown.
  • Remove from oil and drain on a paper towel lined plate.

About the Book
FBI Special Agent Lynda Cutler is investigating an ecoterrorist organization in the Alaskan wilderness when her partner is taken captive and murdered before her very eyes. The only person who can identify the key players, Lynda gets assigned to take part in a joint operation in Istanbul to take the organization down. As a woman in a Muslim country, she’ll find it much easier to move around undetected with a fake husband. Unfortunately for her, the man assigned to play the role is none other than US Army weapons specialist Bill Sanders–the man who crushed her heart into a million pieces back in college. With a cargo bay’s worth of hurt and baggage between them, these two consummate professionals must play their parts perfectly if they hope to stop those responsible for bombing oil pipelines, killing innocent civilians, and threatening to destabilize the oil markets. But love long buried has a way of resurfacing at the most inopportune times–and protecting Lynda has become Bill’s primary focus.
