Directions

Place the chickpeas into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water, let stand 8 hours to overnight.
Drain water from beans and transfer beans to a pot, cover with water. Bring water to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until beans are tender, about 1 hour. Cool beans until easily handled.
Combine chickpeas, cilantro, eggs, garlic, chickpea flour, tahini, coriander, salt, cumin, and chili powder in a blender, blend until well mixed but still chunky. Form mixture into patties.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat, fry patties until golden and crisp, about 3 minutes per side.
