Ooooh, the yummy falafel. We love chickpeas around here, but prefer our food NOT deep fried whenever possible. Using garbanzo bean powder and sauteing in a pan instead, you get all the goodness of the flavor of these falafel cuties, but not the totally stuffed feeling you get from the fried up version.

- Combine all the dry ingredients in a bowl and blend thoroughly. Add the lemon juice and hot water to the dry ingredients and stir until combined. Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes.
- In a frying pan, heat oil on medium-high heat until hot. Add the falafel batter by the tablespoon and flatten slightly.
