Instructions:

  1. Prep the Ingredients
    Drain and rinse 500 g (3 cups) cooked chickpeas. Grate 60 g (¼ cup) raw potato. Finely chop parsley, cilantro, and onion. Mince the garlic.
  2. Blend the Mixture
    In a food processor, add chickpeas, grated potato, onion, garlic, parsley, cilantro, 2 tbsp harissa sauce, 1 tbsp cumin, and salt. Pulse until well combined but still with some texture. Add 1 tsp baking powder and pulse again.
  3. Chill the Mixture
    Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  4. Shape and Cook
    Form into small balls or patties. Heat 1–2 tbsp olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry in batches for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Alternatively, bake at 190°C (375°F) for 25 minutes, flipping halfway.
  5. Serve
    Serve in pita bread or wraps with hummus, tahini, or a fresh salad.
