Not only do you not need a fryer, this oven-baked falafel recipe is quicker to make than the original, given that it’s made with canned chickpeas and not dried. Three other additions for best results: egg and flour, to better bind the mixture together, and cooked bulgur, which provides texture reminiscent of falafel’s graininess. Enjoy warm in a pita, with a green tahini sauce, tomato and cucumber.
