1 ½ (15 ounce) cans chickpeas, drained

1 ½ onions, chopped

¾ cup chopped fresh parsley

3 cloves garlic, chopped

2 eggs

1 tablespoon ground cumin

1 ½ teaspoons ground coriander

1 ½ teaspoons salt

1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice

1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

1 pinch ground black pepper, or to taste

1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste

1 ½ cups bread crumbs

1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed

Directions

Mash chickpeas in a bowl using a masher. Combine mashed chickpeas, onions, parsley, and garlic in a blender and blend until smooth.

Mix eggs, cumin, coriander, salt, lemon juice, baking powder, black pepper, and cayenne together in a bowl. Add chickpea mixture and mix together. Add bread crumbs slowly and combine using your hands until mixture isn't sticky, but will hold together when frying.

Heat oil over medium-high heat in a skillet. Form mixture into about 12 patties about as wide as the palm of your hand. Fry patties in the hot oil until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
