Method

Step 1 of 3

Drain and rinse chickpeas and dry well. Place into a food processor with onion, garlic, parsley, spices and baking powder. Process until a paste forms. Transfer to a bowl and add enough of the flour until mixture holds together. It is best to mix the flour in using your hands.

Step 2 of 3

Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Shape the mixture into small patties and arrange on tray, using a tablespoonful for each. Spray well with oil and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and dry.

Step 3 of 3

Combine yoghurt and mint in a small bowl. Arrange salad on serving plates with falafels and spoon over some of the dressing.
