- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp coriander

For the flatbread:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour

- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 cup warm water
- 1/4 cup olive oil
For the filling:

- 1/4 cup chopped red onion
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

To make the falafel balls, soak the chickpeas in water overnight. Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then add them to a food processor along with the onion, parsley, cilantro, garlic, cumin, coriander, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Pulse until the mixture is finely chopped but not pureed. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the flour and baking powder. Form the mixture into small balls and fry in hot oil until golden brown.
To make the flatbread, mix together the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder in a large bowl. Add the warm water and olive oil and stir until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for a few minutes, then divide it into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a thin circle and cook in a hot skillet until lightly browned on both sides.
To assemble the wraps, spread some hummus and tzatziki sauce on each flatbread. Top with the falafel balls, chopped tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, parsley, and mint. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Roll up the flatbread and serve.
This dish is a perfect combination of crispy falafel balls, fresh vegetables, and soft flatbread. The falafel balls are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, while the fresh vegetables add a refreshing crunch. The hummus and tzatziki sauce add a creamy and tangy flavor to the dish. The flatbread is soft and chewy, making it the perfect vessel for the filling.
