Steps:
- Mash the garbanzo beans in a large bowl. Stir in the onion, garlic, cilantro, parsley, cumin, turmeric, baking powder, bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Do not be afraid to use your hands. Shape the mixture into 1 1/2 inch balls; you should get 18 to 24. If the mixture does not hold together, add a little water.
- Heat the oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Carefully drop the balls into the hot oil, and fry until brown. If you do not have a deep fryer, heat the oil in a heavy deep skillet over medium-high heat. You may need to adjust the heat slightly after the first couple of falafels, and be sure to turn frequently so they brown evenly.

Steps:
- (One day in advance) Place the dried chickpeas and baking soda in a large bowl filled with water to cover the chickpeas by at least 2 inches. Soak overnight for 18 hours (longer if the chickpeas are still too hard). When ready, drain the chickpeas completely and pat them dry.
- Add the chickpeas, herbs, onions, garlic and spices to the large bowl of a food processor fitted with a blade. Run the food processor 40 seconds at a time until all is well combined forming a the falafel mixture.
- Transfer the falafel mixture to a container and cover tightly. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or (up to one whole night) until ready to cook.
- Just before frying, add the baking powder and sesame seeds to the falafel mixture and stir with a spoon.
- Scoop tablespoonfuls of the falafel mixture and form into patties (1/2 inch in thickness each). It helps to have wet hands as you form the patties.
- Fill a medium saucepan 3 inches up with oil. Heat the oil on medium-high until it bubbles softly. Carefully drop the falafel patties in the oil, let them fry for about 3 to 5 minutes or so until crispy and medium brown on the outside. Avoid crowding the falafel in the saucepan, fry them in batches if necessary.
- Place the fried falafel patties in a colander or plate lined with paper towels to drain.
- Serve falafel hot next to other small plates; or assemble the falafel patties in pita bread with tahini or hummus, arugula, tomato and cucumbers. Enjoy!

- Take out a food processor and combine the chickpeas, onion, garlic, dill, lemon zest, baking soda, seasoned salt, turmeric, cumin and smoked paprika in its bowl. Pulse the mixture until it is well combined but still has some texture. Use a spatula to push down the sides midway through to make sure everything gets in there. Cover the mixture and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight.
- The next day, pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees. Take a sheet tray and line it with a silicone mat or parchment paper. Lightly grease the lined tray with olive oil. Scoop out 2 tablespoon portions of the mixture and roll those portions into balls. Line the balls up on the prepared baking sheet and gently flatten each of them into small patties.
- Bake the falafel for 25 minutes, until the outside is golden and crispy. Take the tray out when they're done and let them cool for a minute. Transfer them to a plate and serve with Greek yogurt, pita bread, tomato and cucumber if you wish for a wonderful vegetarian sandwich!
