Hi Trinidad in d house here. And as an East Indian I'm accustomed to using channa, chickpea, garbanzo whatever d name. But we in Trinidad call it channa, and have tons of dishes we it in. But one that is very similar to falafel is " kachorie" served with a chutney. Blessings

Hello! I just watched a great video on how to make kachorie 👍🏼 it is definitely so similar and looks delicious! I now also want to visit Trinidad and try lots of food!😋 thank you so much for introducing kachorie to me. What is your preferred chutney to have with it?In the video I watched they had a mango tamarind chutney that sounded delicious.

I found if they are too dry they burst apart. So the mixture needs to be slightly damp. On a slotted spoon I found if I slowly lower them in they fry enough for 15 seconds to stay together before I let them float by themselves. I came across a video that said a good binder is to use shredded potatoes in the mixture, even slightly boiled before shredding. I've not tried it yet but it makes sense if the starch keeps it together. Also the oil temperature should not be too hot since it can overheat the outside without letting the inside get slightly cooked, so aim for medium high oil heat (medium high on the stove dial) and give it ten minutes for the oil to warm up.

Great recipe! How long can these be frozen? And can they go straight into the fryer after freezing?
@TastyThriftyTimely11 ай бұрын
I’m glad you like it! Kept in an airtight freezer safe container these will easily last for a few months frozen. If you freeze the falafel after it has been formed and before it is cooked you can fry it from frozen but this can be dangerous because the water content in the frozen falafel will react with the oil and cause a lot of splattering of hot oil. A safer option would be to thaw the frozen falafel and then fry them (I’m not sure if the extra moisture from freezing them might make them more prone to falling apart in the fryer… I don’t think I’ve tested that). Alternatively you can put the frozen falafel directly in your oven and bake them. When I freeze these I usually form them, fry them, and allow them to cool. Then I freeze the fried falafel. To reheat them I usually bake them until they are warm and the outside is crispy again (you could probably reheat them on a pan as well if you don’t have an oven). I hope this helps and you find a method that is most convenient for you!

I've been soaking them for our falafel for many years, & used to fry when kids were in the home. But we prefer baking now, & of course, tahini on top. Will try your idea of toasted seeds in the mix. Sounds good! I use a small cooked potato (mashed tater style) added to my mix & it holds them together fairly well. We like cumin & the onions, but more paprika (not more smoked variety) & parsley, but I'll try the spinach & coriander. Sounds yummy. Thx much! PS I keep soaked chick peas in the freezer, measured out for a batch of Falafel. They thaw fast (or you can just pour boiling water over them briefly) at room temp. Helpful for me.

@TastyThriftyTimely9 ай бұрын
Ah yes I’ve had the same separation in oil happen when I’ve used canned chickpeas. The way to prevent that is to use chickpeas that have only been soaked and not cooked. Canned chickpeas have been fully cooked so they are a lot softer and have more moisture in them. That is what causes the falafel to fall apart. If you want your falafel to stick together try this method of only using chickpeas that have been soaked. If you really want to use canned chickpeas though, I would suggest only baking the falafel not frying it. They may still crumble on you even if you bake them but they will be much more edible!

You can use canned chickpeas but the falafel will likely fall apart a little.

Oh I’m sorry that’s happened. I’ve never had that problem using soaked (not cooked) chickpeas. Do you think you could have maybe over-processed the mixture so it got a little too wet? You can make sure your chickpeas are quite dry before you grind all the ingredients and it should be about a couscous texture (otherwise it can be processed into almost a hummus and be too wet). If you make them again and it still seems like the mixture is too wet you can add some flour (others have used chickpea flour or even all purpose flour). Baking or air frying them will also be gentler on them then frying in hot oil. I hope you have better luck if you do try them again!

Perhaps the mixture was pulsed too fine in your food processor?
