NANCY'S FALAFEL PISTACHIOS



Nancy's Falafel Pistachios image

This recipe was inspired by the falafel I ate at the wonderful Arab market in Akko. It was so striking that after asking the falafel man what spices were involved, I went to the spice guy at the same market and requested that he recreate the blend.

Provided by Steven Rothfeld

Yield Makes 6-10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon dried ground basil
1 tablespoon dried ground marjoram
1 tablespoon dried ground rosemary
2 1/2 teaspoons turmeric
2 cups (300 g) whole peeled garlic cloves
2 cups (475 ml) olive oil
6 dried hot red chilies, such as chilies de árbol or pequin chilies
4 cups (500 g) unsalted pistachios in the shell
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Combine the first six ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside the "falafel" spice.
  • Line a plate with paper towels, Using a mandolin with a safety attachment to protect your fingers, cut the garlic cloves into paper-thin slices. Pour olive oil into a medium-size heavy skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add the garlic slices and cook until crisp and light golden brown; do not burn or the garlic and oil will be unusable. Remove from the heat. Using a slotted utensil, immediately transfer the garlic chips to the prepared plate to drain. Reserve the garlic-cooking oil.
  • Add the chilies and 2 tablespoons of the reserved garlic-cooking oil (save the remainder for another use) to a large heavy skillet. Set over medium-high heat. Add the pistachios and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the "falafel" spice and salt and stir until the pistachios are coated with spice and heated through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Transfer the pistachios and chilies to a serving bowl. Add the garlic chips and toss well. Serve warm or at room temperature.

PISTACHIO FALAFEL

Provided by Geoffrey Zakarian

Time P1DT55m

Yield 4 servings (about 16 falafel)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 cup dried chickpeas
2/3 cup shelled, roasted and salted pistachios
1/4 cup fresh mint, minced, plus whole mint leaves for garnish
1/4 cup fresh parsley, minced
1/4 cup diced onion
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 clove garlic
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more as needed
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Yogurt Sauce, recipe follows
Pomegranate seeds, for garnish
1/2 cup Greek yogurt
1/4 cup shelled, roasted and salted pistachios, ground
2 tablespoons tahini
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
Juice and zest of 1 lemon
1 clove garlic, grated
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the dried chickpeas in a bowl or resealable container. Fill with water to completely cover the chickpeas. Cover the container and refrigerate for 24 hours. Drain and rinse the chickpeas.
  • In a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, combine the pistachios, soaked chickpeas, mint, parsley, onion, coriander, cumin, baking soda, garlic and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Pulse the food processor until the mixture starts to come together, scraping down the sides every few pulses, making sure not to overblend. (You want it to have a slightly coarse texture; you do not want it to become a smooth paste.)
  • Form the falafel mixture into balls about the size of a golf ball, then lightly press into discs. Place on a sheet tray.
  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with a wire rack.
  • Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick pan over a medium-high heat. Saute the falafel in batches, about 3 minutes on each side to caramelize. Transfer to the sheet pan with the rack and season with salt. Repeat as needed with more olive oil and the remaining falafel. Hold the falafel in the oven until ready to serve. Serve with the Yogurt Sauce, and sprinkle everything with the pomegranate seeds and whole mint leaves.
  • For the yogurt sauce: Combine the yogurt, ground pistachios, tahini, cardamom, lemon juice and zest, grated garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl and mix with a spoon or whisk until well blended. Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

  • Heat the oil in a medium sized skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and give it a nice sprinkle of salt. Cook the onion for about five minutes, or until it's clear. Add the garlic and cook another 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the chickpeas and combine everything well.
  • Place the pistachios, salt, black pepper and cumin into a food processor fitted with the S blade. Process till the mixture is a coarse meal. Add the warm chickpea mixture, the parsley, and the spinach. Pulse to combine everything and chop down the greens. Stop and scrape the sides of the bowl down, then add the lemon and the chickpea flour. Keep pulsing until the mixture is uniform, but retains some coarse texture.
  • Using clean hands, shape the mixture into 2-inch balls. (If the mixture is too sticky to shape, stir in another tablespoon of chickpea flour, but keep in mind that the falafel balls will firm up considerably as they bake, so a soft mixture is OK.) Place them onto the lined baking sheet and press down gently to flatten slightly. Bake for 20 minutes, flipping over halfway through. Serve with delightfully green tahini dressing or your dressing/sauce of choice!

  • To the bowl of a food processor, add the chickpeas, pistachios, almond flour, mint, parsley, shallot, and garlic, and pulse 7 to 10 times, until you reach a coarse but uniform texture. Add the remaining ingredients, then pulse, frequently scraping down the sides of the bowl, until the mixture comes together in a coarse paste.
  • Remove the bowl from the processor and pull out the blade. Using a 2 tsp (10 ml) capacity cookie scoop or your hands, roll the falafel mixture into balls and set onto the baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the falafel are lightly golden and firm to the touch. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving; this will allow the falafel to firm up and reach their ideal texture.
  • SERVING: Serve Pistachio Falafels warm or room temperature as a bite along with hummus or a quick combination of Greek yogurt and lemon juice; in a pita with lettuce, sliced tomatoes, diced cucumber and hummus or Greek yogurt for a quick lunch; or over rice and veggies, drizzled with a sauce made of hummus thinned with orange and lemon juice for a nutritious, satisfying dinner.

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In a standard-size food processor*, pulse herbs a few times to chop finely. Add pistachios and pulse once more to chop into very small pieces. Next add chickpeas, garlic, and onion. Process to combine. Add cumin, flour, baking powder, salt, and olive oil. Process one final time, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. It does not need to be perfectly combined, but should be holding together.
  • Oil a large half sheet pan to help with sticking (or use a silicone mat/parchment paper). Form small patties with the falafel mixture (a couple TBS each) and flatten onto the tray, evenly spaced apart. You should end up with between 20 and 25 pistachio falafel.
  • Bake for 7 minutes, remove from the oven, and carefully flip. Bake for 7 minutes more, or until falafel are browned but not burnt. Remove from oven and let cool.
  • To make herbed tahini yogurt, mix together yogurt, herbs, tahini, lemon juice, and salt in a small bowl. Taste and add more seasonings as desired (salt for overall flavor , lemon juice for brightness, and tahini for nuttiness).
