Falafel

20231125, #breakfastdiary 903, -3°C/clear Made from ground chickpeas, cilantro, cumin, onion, and more, then deep-fried, falafel is one of the Middle East's signature vegan dishes. Someone once described its taste as 'like gathering up only the crispy edges of mung bean pancakes,' and I couldn't put it better myself. I roll the falafel 'dough' (?) I bought at the Asian market the other day into balls and deep-fry them. Mix mayo, lemon juice, and whole grain mustard in a 2:1:0.5 ratio to make a lemon mayo for dipping.
