Does anyone have a decent falafel recipe? I tried making them according to
one recipe I have but they came out a bit dry and tasteless. I prefer to use
raw rather than canned ones btw

TIA

Flavour will come from Cumin , coriander, salt , garlic and lemon
juice.

You could even add a little ginger or nutmeg if you were feeling
adventurous.

Replace half of the tahini with some other nut butter such as pumpkin
seed or hemp.

To make them more moist add a little finely chopped mushroom or spring
onion.

I had some fallafel that had a little mashed rice in as well - this
made them lighter and sweeter.

Another version I tried recently had Broad beans added to the mix -
they were delicious very lemony and good hit of fresh coriander.

Ginger goes in everything I cook :-)

Aha, the recipe I had just used water to hold it together - didn't mention
tahini!

Will have a go with mushrooms, that sounds good.
