Diane! Nice to see you on UA-cam!! This recipe looks delicious and somewhat similar to falafel, I can't wait to try it. Quick question... I notice on your PBS show that you almost always use red onions but that in this recipe you used a white onion. Is there a particular reason for that? Or is it just because white onions were freshest on the day of the shoot. Just curious... Be well!!
Interesting how food travels from country to country and nation to nation. Lavash bread we have in Iran and in Armenia and we call it the same name. Dolma also we have in both countries and call it the same. But Mezze that you call it Greek is actually an Arabic word (we use the same in Persian) meaning Taste !
Thank you, Diana, you have outstanding recipes! Thanks so much for sharing, greetings from Canada!
Love these and the beautiful island of Rhodes. Thank you
Diane Kochilas' recipes and videos have been guiding my Greek cooking for years. To your health!
thanks!
Lovely and simple. Typical no-nonsense, unpretentious, Greek style.
Can’t wait to try it❤
Let me know how you liked it!
Me too.
It looks good and I would love to try that. Chickpeas are really versatile. They could probably hummus a song.
Haha!
🤣

You can use either. And, yes, it's always about what's available!
Ektacto!!!
Looks so yum
Can you use chickpea flour instead of all purpose flour?
I haven't tried that, so can't answer with certainty, but if you generally replace wheat flour with chickpea flour, then probably yes.
Yes chickpea flour will make the chickpea Patties crispy on the outside & more protein.

Does it taste like meat?
No! It tastes like chickpeas!
