FALAFEL AND HUMMUS IN A BLENDER RECIPE BY TASTY
Did you know you could whip up an entire dinner in using your blender? We're not talking protein shakes or smoothie bowls, either. Think creamy, herby falafel, roasted red pepper hummus, and fresh tzatziki sauce. It's a meal that will leave your tastebuds spinning.

Steps:
- Make the falafel: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 375°F (190°C).
- Add the shallot, parsley, and garlic to a blender and pulse until coarsely chopped. Add the chickpeas, cumin, coriander, pepper, salt, flour, and olive oil and blend until combined, but still slightly chunky, 15-20 pulses, scraping down the sides of the blender as needed. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and rinse out the blender.
- Scoop the falafel mixture into 2-tablespoon portions and gently roll into balls, then flatten slightly. Place on the prepared baking sheet. You should have about 12 balls.
- Working in batches, fry the falafel balls in the hot oil for 2-4 minutes, until dark golden brown. Transfer to paper towel-lined plate to drain, then arrange on a serving platter, garnish with parsley, and set aside while you make the dips.
- Make the roasted red pepper hummus: Add the chickpeas, roasted red peppers, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, paprika, pepper, and salt to the blender. Purée until smooth, adding the water 1 tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached. Transfer to a serving bowl and rinse out the blender.
- Make the tzatziki sauce: Add the cucumber, yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, dill, mint to the blender. Purée until mostly smooth, but still with some texture. Transfer to a serving bowl and top with more dill.
- Serve the falafel, hummus, and tzatziki with pitas, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- For the crispy pita: Pour enough vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot to measure about 1-inch deep and heat to 350 degrees F over medium-high heat. Cut the pita bread into large 1 1/2-inch squares. Fry the bread in the hot oil until golden and crunchy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- For the chickpea broth: Add 1 can drained chickpeas to a large pot. Cover with 3 cups water, then add the garlic, chile powder, cumin and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil and turn off the heat.
- For the hummus: Combine the 3 cans drained chickpeas in a food processor with the tahini, garlic paste, 2 teaspoons salt and the lemon juice. Blend until just combined. With the food processor on, drizzle in the ice water until blended and smooth. Remove 1 1/2 cups of the hummus to an air-tight container and store in the refrigerator for up to a week. Add the yogurt to the food processor with the remaining hummus and blend until smooth.
- To assemble: Put the fried pita in the bottom of a 2-quart serving dish and pour over about 1 cup of the hummus cooking liquid, half of the whole chickpeas, all the yogurt-hummus mixture. Spread it in an even layer, then sprinkle on the remaining whole chickpeas (discard the garlic cloves).
- Heat the ghee and olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the pine nuts and fry until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Top the hummus with the pine nuts and oil, then sprinkle with about 1/4 cup pomegranate seeds, some parsley leaves and chile pepper.
SCOTT PEACOCK'S BUTTERBEAN HUMMUS
Steps:
- Pick through and wash the lima beans. Put them into a heavy pot and add enough cold water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil and then simmer, partially covered, until they are very tender but not mushy. Remove from the heat and drain, reserving the cooking liquid.
- To the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steal blade, add the drained beans, garlic, tahini, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Puree this mixture, and with the motor running, slowly pour in the olive oil and lemon juice.
- If the puree is too thick, pour in a little of the reserved cooking liquid until the puree is silky smooth in appearance and on the tongue. Taste carefully for seasoning and add more salt and cayenne, if desired.
CHOCOLATE HUMMUS WITH CANDIED BACON
Steps:
- For the hummus: In the bowl of a food processor blend the cocoa powder, maple syrup, almond extract, cinnamon, salt and garbanzo beans. Add a little bit of water to adjust the consistency if needed.
- For the bacon: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Cook the bacon to desired doneness in the microwave or on the stovetop. Sprinkle the hot bacon with brown sugar then bake for 5 minutes.
- Dip the candied bacon in the chocolate hummus and enjoy!

Steps:
- For the butternut hummus: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Spread the butternut pieces evenly on the baking sheet, drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until soft and golden.
- Combine the roasted butternut, chickpeas, tahini, coconut milk, lemon juice and remaining olive oil in a blender, season with salt and pepper and blitz until smooth. Set aside (you may need to clean your blender at this point).
- For the pesto falafel: Combine the miso, chickpeas, cumin, coriander, garlic, onion, basil, olive oil and some salt and pepper in a blender or food processor until combined. Wet your hands and roll the mix into golf ball-sized balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Drizzle the falafel with olive oil and bake for 30 minutes or until golden. Note: You can twice cook them by adding oil to a frypan for a bit of an extra golden edge for 2 minutes on medium heat.
- Serve the falafel on top of that super creamy and nutty butternut hummus.

- Prepare the night before serving: Place the dried chickpeas in a medium saucepan, and cover them with a generous amount of cold water. Allow the chickpeas to soak for 8 to 12 hours (overnight). They will plump up substantially.
- Make the falafel bites: Drain the chickpeas well. Place them in the bowl of a large food processor fitted with a blade attachment. Add the red onion, garlic, flour, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, cilantro, and parsley leaves. Pulse the mixture several times until it just begins to come together–if it is too coarse, it will not hold. Place mixture in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for one hour.
- Remove mixture from the fridge. Set aside a large plate lined with a paper towel. Pour the oil in a large deep skillet (you want the oil to be at least 1.5-inches deep), and place over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, shape the falafel mixture with your hands into 1-inch diameter balls. The falafel should come together when shaped, but be relatively delicate.
- Carefully place each falafel ball into the hot oil. Fry the falafel in small batches to avoid over-crowding the pan. Fry the falafel balls (flipping them continuously throughout the frying process) for 2 to 3 minutes, or until evenly browned on all sides. Carefully transfer them to the paper-towel lined plate, and sprinkle them lightly with salt.
