Proceedings

In the chopper attachment of an immersion blender, pulse the chickpeas for 2–3 seconds until you get a grainy texture (not a paste!). Transfer to a bowl.

Finely chop the onion and parsley and add them to the bowl with the chickpeas.
Add the minced garlic, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper.

Mix everything well and shape into small balls, then gently flatten them.
Coat each piece in breadcrumbs.

Place the falafel on the airfry tray and spray with extra virgin olive oil.

Bake at 180°C for 25 minutes, or until golden and crisp.
