250g dried chick peas
1 onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 tbsp flat leaf parsley, finely chopped
2 tbsp coriander leaf, finely chopped
½ tsp each of cayenne pepper, ground cumin and ground coriander.
½ tsp baking powder
1½ tbsp plain flour
1 tsp sesame seeds
Oil
½ tsp salt
Soak the peas overnight in plenty of water. Drain, combine with the onion, garlic, parsley and coriander leaf and blitz in a food processor until chopped but not mushy. You need a bit of texture. Add the spices, baking powder, salt, flour and 3 tbsp water. Cover and leave to rest in the fridge for 1 hour. Heat about 3” of oil in a heavy bottomed saucepan to 180°C. With wet hands form 1 tbsp of the mixture firmly into balls. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and fry for about 4 minutes until well browned and cooked through.
