How to make Falafel with Hummus

Puree canned garbanzo beans, chopped onion, 3 tablespoons plain flour, garlic pepper spice blend, ground cumin, baking powder, and salt in processor until coarse puree forms. Add chopped Italian parsley; process just to blend. Generously sprinkle plate with plain flour. Roll level tablespoonfuls garbanzo bean mixture into balls; transfer balls to plate. Roll falafel in flour to coat generously; flatten balls slightly.

Pour enough vegetable oil into heavy large skillet to reach depth of 1/2 inch. Heat oil to 191°C. Working in 2 batches, fry falafel patties until deep brown, turning once, about 3 minutes. Transfer falafel patties to paper towels to drain. Serve falafel with hummus.
