    great base, but a bit too watery, I used drained can beans, so I compensated with dried bread crumbs, and formed into patties and let sit in the fridge for an hour. the seasoning was great, but I did up the cumin and garlic.
    oh, and since i used canned beans, i did add an egg, which required the additional bread crumbs.

    I just made this and it turned out great! I flattened the balls out a bit and flipped them after 15 minutes. They were moist inside and they browned beautifully. I'll definitely do this again.

    Really yummy... my kids we talking about how good they were while we were eating... I knew they will be good when they were baking because that smell was amazing.

    Will mess around with the basic recipe to get a flavor and consistency that we enjoy.

    These are amazing considering the fact they are baked! I mixed in an egg after the food processor step, and they came out crispy on the outside and still semi-moist on the inside, just like the fried version. I also dressed the pockets with my own homemade tahini, and substituted Goya Recaito (cilantro-based cooking sauce for the cilantro and parsley. I will definitely be making again! Thanks Ellie!

    I can't speak for how this compares to "true" falafel, as I've never ordered them at a restaurant. I'm sure they're good, but they always looked awful to me due to the heavy frying. I love middle eastern flavors and I loved all the ingredients, so I decided to try these. They were delicious! The only change I made was that I didn't have any cilantro, so I did 1/2 cup of parsley. I wasn't able to get 16 balls out of the recipe, but it made 10. It was perfect for me, my husband, and our 3 year old (who also enjoyed the recipe, but not in a pita, just all separated. They were super messy, so next time, I think I'd just serve it as a salad with toasted pita triangles. It would definitely be good with tzatsiki instead of the tahini sauce, but I LOVED the flavor of the sauce on the falafel. By itself, the sauce didn't taste very good, but all together it was great! Great job Ellie!

    LOVED LOVED LOVED these. I haven't had one since college and then a little coffee shop opened in the Hospital I was going to. smelled so good I had to have one. eventhough "authentic" ones were fried, I thought they were drier than I remembered. Ellie's were delish.... I did however add extra parsley and Tbs of olive oil to combat the claimed dryness. I may also have overdone the food processor that made it a much mushier dough. Can't wait to share these with vegetaqrian friends.

    OMG Ellie, the word is F A L A F E L not f e l a f e l. Sounds like you "felt awful" after eating these. I know from past experience a falafel is delicious and I look forward to trying Ellie's.

    I wanted something vegetarian for dinner other than lentils so I tried this. The mixture didn't hold together very well, but I also didn't bake them for the recommended time (didn't want them to be dry. Also, they weren't very flavorful. The just kind of tasted like mushed up chickpeas with some spices mixed in. Won't be eating again, but it was an alright meal.
