 Reader Recipe: Felafel
Felafel are crunchy chick pea nuggets from Lebanon that make a delicious and
very healthy sandwich.

| Ingredients |
- 1½ c chick peas, soaked/cooked or canned, drained
- ½ large onion
- 4-6 cloves garlic
- 2 t cumin
- 1/3 loaf brown rice bread or 4 slices regular bread
- 1 T red pepper flakes
- 2 T fresh parsley, chopped
- several T flour

Blend everything but the parsley and flour in food processor or with hand mixer until smooth. Stir in parsley. Form into 1-in. balls, then flatten somewhat and coat with flour.

I like felafel dipped into hummus or baba
ganouj, but they're also terrific in a sandwich.
