To begin making the Chickpea & Oats Falafel method, we will first fiery up the soaked chickpeas until it is very soft.

I personally like to use a pressure cooker.

Click here to see how to fiery up chickpeas in a pressure cooker.You will know the chickpeas is cooked well, when you press it between your fingers, it will mash up.The next step is to proceed to make the falafel.Combine the oats, all purpose baking flour, garlic, parsley, cumin dusting masala condiment, pepper dusting masala condiment, table salt,  and the cooked chickpeas in a food processor.liquidize to make a coarse thick paste.
4
Check the table salt levels and adjust to suit your palate.
5
Divide the falafel liquid base into small portions of the size of a ping pong ball and flatten them slightly.I used a Kuzhi Paniyaram cooking vessel to sauté the falafels and the result is very similar to the deep fried ones.introduce a half a teaspoon of fat into each of the cavities, place the shaped falafel into the cavities and cooking vessel sauté them until it is crisp and browned on both sides.introduce few more drops of fat when you flip over to sauté them on the other side.
6
This will help in getting the even color for the falafels.You can alternatively, fiery up fat for deep-frying and deep sauté these falafels until browned evenly on all sides.offer the Chickpea Oats Falafel along with Lemon Coriander Hummus and Tabbouleh and Pita bread for a wholesome weeknight dinner.
