The parsley and cilantro add a bright, fresh flavor. Yield: 6-8 servings   INGREDIENTS METHOD For Falafelogs: 1 can (15 ounces, or 425 g) chickpeas, drained and rinsed, or 1 3/4 cups (TK) cooked chickpeas 1 cup (160 g) diced yellow onion (about 1/2 large onion) 1 Roma tomato, roughly chopped (about 1/3 cup) 1 ounce (28 g) fresh parsley (about 1 cup fresh leaves) 1/2 ounce (14 g) fresh cilantro (about 1/3 cup fresh leaves) 2 to 4 large garlic cloves, to taste 1/2 cup (60 g) chickpea flour 1/2 cup (72 g) vital wheat gluten flour* 1 tablespoon (15 ml) lemon juice 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepperFor Cucumber Relish: 1/2 cup (128 g) tahini* 1/4 cup (60 ml) lemon juice 3 to 4 large cloves garlic, to taste 2 teaspoons dried dill or 2 tablespoons (7 g) fresh dill 1 medium cucumber, seeded and diced (about 1 1/2 cups) 2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced (about 2/3 cup) 1 tablespoon (1 g) fresh chopped cilantro 1 tablespoon (1 g) fresh chopped parsley Salt, to taste Ground black pepper, to taste 6 to 8 pitas *Tahinis vary in texture and thickness, from very liquidy to very thick. This measure assumes you’re using a more liquid tahini. If yours is very thick, you may need to thin it out with water or vegetable broth to reach the consistency of a pourable milkshake. You want a total of 1/2 cup (120 ml), so adjust tahini amount as needed. You can make the logs gluten-free by substituting chickpea flour for the vital wheat gluten flour. The logs may be a little more fragile, but they will still taste great!  Preheat oven to 400F. Have ready a glass baking dish. Cut a hole in the top of each tomato, where the stem is. Into each hole place 1 teaspoon minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon basil, 1/4 teaspoon oregano, 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt an pepper. Bake for 45 minutes.* Until tomato skins are wrinkly and the garlic is very fragrant. Remove from oven. Using an immersion blender, or carefully transfer to a tabletop blender, blend to desired consistency. Serve on pasta, use as pizza sauce, or simply enjoy dipping in a nice crusty piece of bread *If using an air-fryer you willhave toadjust the time, possibly 20 minutes at 400F, depending on your specific machine. For the grill, you will want to put your tomatoes in a foil packet. Enjoy!  Â
