Directions

Grind the chickpeas through the coarse blade of a meat grinder or in the container of a food processor.

Add the remaining ingredients, with the exception of the last 6 ingredients.

Mix well. The mixture will be soft.

Preheat the oven, form the mixture into 1 inch balls, coat with the flour and fry, in a basket, four or five at a time, in the hot oil.

The balls rise to the surface and are light brown when cooked.

This takes about 2 minutes.

Drain on paper towels. Serve in whole wheat pita halves with chopped onion, tomato, and shredded lettuce.
