All made from scratch in their own kitchen, of course.Of course, this has been a fairly easy project to undertake since it entails one of an athlete’s favourite activities- eating!Are you ready? Let dive with us in a unique cooking experience! VERONICA YOKO PLEBANI’S FALAFEL:Ingredients:• 200 gr of dry chickpeas (soaked the night before)• 1 tbsp dry origan• 15 gr of fresh herbs• 5/6 dry tomatoes• 1 lemon peal and juice • 1 tsp cumin• 3 tbsp of mixed seeds• salt to tasteDirections:• Pour the chickpeas into a large bowl and cover them by about 3 inches of cold water. Let them soak overnight. They will double in size as they soak.• Drain and rinse the chickpeas well.• Preheat the oven to 230C/210C Fan and line a baking tray with baking parchment.• Pour into your food processor the fresh herbs, dry tomatoes, lemon juice and peal and the seeds. if you have a smal food processor, you will want to divide the ingredients in half and process the mixture one batch at a time.• As they are blended, add the chickpeas (drained and rinsed well), origan, cumin and salt.• Pulse all ingredients together until a rough, coarse meal forms. Scrape the sides of the processor periodically and push the mixture down the sides. Process till the mixture is somewhere between the texture of couscous and a paste. You want the mixture to hold together, and a more paste-like consistency will help with that... but don't overprocess, you don't want it turning into hummus!• Divide the mixture into equal pieces and shape into patties. Place on the prepared baking tray and pour the patties with some olive oil if you want to. Cook on the top shelf of the oven for 25–30 minutes, or until golden-brown.• Serve them with lemon and your tahini dressing. Tahini dressing:• 2 tbsp of tbs paste• 1/2 tbsp of lemon juice• 2/3 tbsp of water• pinch of salt (optional)Mix everything in a bowl, it may seize up and thicken at first, but continue adding water a little at a time and whisking until creamy and smooth.Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more lemon juice for acidity or salt for saltinessEnjoy fresh, or store leftovers in the refrigerator up to 5 days (sometimes longer).
