Steps:
- Preheat a waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions. Spray inside of waffle iron with cooking spray.
- Process garbanzo beans in a food processor until coarsely chopped. Add onion, egg whites, cilantro, parsley, garlic, flour, cumin, salt, coriander, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and cardamom to garbanzo beans. Pulse, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally, until falafel batter resembles a coarse meal. Pour batter into a bowl and stir with a fork.
- Spoon about 1/4 cup falafel batter onto each section of the preheated waffle iron. Cook until evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

FALAFEL WAFFLE
Steps:
- Soak the chickpeas and fava beans overnight. Grind the beans, parsley, garlic, leek, onion and bell pepper in a meat grinder, double grinding if desired, to get a smoother texture. (Extra batter can be frozen at this stage for later use.) Mix in the coriander, cumin, fennel and salt right before cooking, or the batter will turn.
- Heat the oil to 375 degrees F in a deep-fryer or Dutch oven fitted with a deep-fry thermometer or preheat a waffle iron.
- Use a falafel maker or hand-form the batter into flattened balls (to ensure even cooking). Deep-fry the falafel until they float to the top and the number of bubbles emanating from each falafel decreases significantly. Or, for falafel waffles, spray a waffle iron with nonstick spray, add a lump of batter and cook until brown and crispy on the outside but still green and soft inside.
