Sesame Crusted Chickpea Patties

These patties are a slightly different take on falafel as they are actually no-cook and served cold. They have a yummy chickpea sesame flavour and go great with all sorts of dips such as a cucumber or spicy tomato raita. I hope you enjoy them as much as we did!

• Ready In: 15 mins
• Yields: 12 patties
