Any falafel &/or tahini recipes?
I live where the falafel is only available at the Farmer's Market (which is done for the season next week, welcome to winter). I have become addicted, I will go into withdrawals & cry! Can anyone help? = )

Mark Bittman's falafel recipe from the New York Times is wonderfully simple and delicious! Unfortunately, you might have to pay for the article -- I printed it out at one point, but unfortunately don't have an electronic copy to share with you...it's likely you can dig it up online somewhere, though. Make sure to use dried chickpeas -- makes all the difference! It's easier than you think; just soak overnight.

Here's a recipe for falafel:
Ingredients
1 potato
1 bunch parsley
2 onions
3 Tbs. oil
3 C. cooked, ground garbanzo beans
1/4 C. sesame seed meal
1 Tbs. yogurt
1/8 tsp. garlic powder
1 Tbs. salt
Dash cayenne
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. paprika
Juice of 1 lemon
Directions
Cook and mash potato and set aside. Mince leaves of parsley. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Chop onions fine and sauté in oil until soft. Stir in parsley and cook briefly. Add to ground beans. Mix well with remaining ingredients. Form into balls or shape into patties, using about 2 Tbs. of the mixture for each one. Place on greased cookie sheets and bake for 10 minutes on each side.
Yield: 24 balls
Hope this helps!
