Diets This is one of those recipes that came about when I realized I didn’t have what I needed for my originally planned dinner. And it’s definitely staying on the dinner rotation.
2 cloves garlic
1 shallot
1 can Haddar Chickpeas, rinsed, drained and dried
1 tablespoon shawarma seasoning
1/2 cup parsley
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 tablespoons flour (I used whole wheat)
1 teaspoon Tuscanini Sea Salt
freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon Gefen Extra-Virgin Olive Oil, plus more to brush on
mini tortillas (about 15)
In a food processor, process garlic and shallots. Add remaining ingredients (excluding extra oil to brush and tortillas). Pulse until a rough course mixture is formed. Refrigerate for 30 minutes (not absolutely necessary – I skipped this step once).
Fill each tortilla with about two tablespoons of falafel mixture, fold in half and flatten. Brush both sides of tortillas with some olive oil.
To cook, I used a panini press, but you can also grill on each side until nicely browned in a grill pan or a regular pan.
Yield about 15 mini arayes

It didn’t make 15 pieces but three and a half, with 6 inch tortillas.
The mass was so dry, the food processor stuck everything to the processor wall and then rotated empty.
Didn’t try it yet but sounds like a GREAT idea! Can’t wait to try it!!!
