I haven't had falafel before, but always wanted to try it. These were great! I doubled the recipe and it took a long time to prepare, but they were worth it! I forgot the coriander and added a pinch of curry. I also squeezed out as much liquid as I could from the onion/parsley mixture. It think that is the key to the patties not falling apart. I used a piece of wax paper to form a log then sliced (like you would for slice and bake cookies). I then laid out the patties, folded the wax paper over, and pressed them lightly with the bottom of a glass. I dipped them in oil and baked them @ 350 for 10 minutes each side, then broiled for a couple mins each side. Turned out crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The sauce is awesome as well. To that I added juice of half a lemon and a few liberal shakes of garlic powder and used sour cream instead of mayo. I squeezed as much liquid out of the cucumbers as I could and the sauce wasn't thin at all. I let it sit for an hour or so. Served in pitas with lettuce and tomatoes. Will be making these again for sure!
