Process garbanzo beans, onion, garlic, bread, cumin and chilies in a
blender or food processor until smooth, then spoon mixture into a
bowl. Add parsley, salt, pepper and egg; mix well. Form in 8 balls
and coat in bread crumbs. Flatten balls slightly to form oval shapes.
Half fill a deep fat fryer or saucepan with oil; heat to 375'F.
(190'C.) or until a 1/2" cube of day-old bread browns in 40 seconds.
Fry Falafel, a few at a time, 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Drain
on paper towels. Cut pita bread in half and open to form pockets. Put
1 Falafel into each pocket with lettuce, onion and tomato slices and
serve hot.
Serves: 8
