Directions:
Add your onion, parsley, cilantro, hemp hearts spices, and flax/water mixture into the food processor and process until the mixture can be pinched together.
Heat your oil to 325 degrees
Form your falafel out of the mixture, we made 8 but you can make them bigger or smaller as you see fit
Fry them for about a minute making sure they brown evenly on all sides. Once they are brown they are done, these dont take long to cook!
For the sauce add everything to a bowl and mix it together. Thats it! :)
