Falafel recipe with sesame seeds in the oven

Mix the boiled chickpeas, parsley, onion, garlic, cumin, black pepper, chili peppers and salt in a food processor or blender. If you are going to use a blender, you will get a better mixture if you grate the onions and garlic first.

Take walnut-sized pieces from the mixture you have prepared and turn them into balls or meatballs. Put the falafels that you have shaped and then covered with sesame on a baking tray. If you lay greaseproof paper on the tray, the base of the falafel will not stick after cooking and the shape will not be distorted when removing from the tray. Then, bake them in a preheated 200 degree oven until they are browned.

After the falafel is cooked, serve it with the sauce you prepared by mixing tahini, yogurt and lemon juice.
