Here is how you make low carb falafel:

For the cauliflower you should end up with a cup of the puree. It takes about 1 medium head (florets only) to get that much. First chop it up with a knife, then add it to a food processor or magic bullet and pulse until it?s blended but still has a grainy texture. You can grind the almonds in a similar manner ? just don?t over grind them, you want the texture. Combine the ground cauliflower and ground almonds in a medium bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir until well blended. Heat a half and half mix of olive and grapeseed (or any other light oil) oil until sizzling. While it?s heating, form the mix into 8 three-inch patties that are about the thickness of a hockey puck. Fry them four at a time until browned on one side and then flip and cook the other side. Resist the urge to flip too soon ? you should see the edges turning brown before you attempt it ? maybe 4 minutes or so per side. Remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain any excess oil. Serve with tahini sauce and a tomato & parsley garnish if desired.Read more at http://www.ibreatheimhungry.com/2012/03/faux-lafel-with-tahini-sauce-2.html#qA4lkLQ1UHMS7og2.99Serving Size: makes 3 three inch pattiesNumber of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user ALLILACROIX.
