Ingredients for Falafel & Wraps

250 g dried chickpeas
10 pcs wheat tortillas
1 pc fresh lime
1 pc fresh Lollo Rosso lettuce
2 pcs yellow onions
3 cloves fresh garlic
500 ml vegetable oil for deep-frying
1 tsp ground cayenne pepper
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1 pinch ground red pepper
1 pinch fine table salt
1 handful fresh cilantro bunch

Ingredients for the Mayonnaise

6 tbsp mayonnaise jar
1 tbsp lime juice 100%
4 tsp hot chili paste
1 pinch ground black pepper

Preparation of the Falafel

1
Soak the dried chickpeas in plenty of water for 12 hours before preparation. Then rinse thoroughly and drain.
2
Blend the chickpeas together with the finely chopped onions and pressed garlic. Stir in the spices (cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, red pepper) and the chopped fresh cilantro. Season with salt.
3
Form small golf-ball-sized balls from the mixture.
4
Heat plenty of vegetable oil in a pot so that the balls can float in it. First, sear them sharply, then reduce the heat and deep-fry until golden brown for a few minutes. Drain on kitchen paper.

Sauce & Serving

1
For the chili mayonnaise, mix all ingredients (mayonnaise, lime juice, chili paste, black pepper) and chill.
2
Briefly warm the tortillas in a dry pan.
3
Fill the tortillas with lettuce leaves and falafel and generously drizzle with the chili-lime mayonnaise. Serve immediately.

Ein kleiner Tipp: Wenn die Falafel-Masse zu feucht ist, geben Sie einfach einen Esslöffel Kichererbsenmehl hinzu. Servieren Sie die Wraps mit extra frischem Koriander für das volle Aroma!
