For best results, use dried chickpeas that have been soaked overnight. Canned chickpeas will not produce the same texture.
Don't skip the resting period! This allows the flavors to meld and helps the falafel hold their shape during cooking.
Adjust the amount of sriracha to your spice preference.
Serve these falafel in pita bread with hummus, tahini sauce, chopped vegetables, and a sprinkle of sumac.
