Ingredients :

2 red onions, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, crushed
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 and half teaspoons baking powder

salt and ground black pepper

How To Make :

1. Soak the white beans overnight in water. Remove the skins and process in a blender or food processor. Add the chopped onions, garlic, parsley, coriander, cumin, baking powder and seasoning and blend again to make a very smooth paste. Leave the mixture to stand at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.

2. Take walnut-size piece of mixture and flatten into small patties, or you can form the mixture into a ball. Set aside again for about 15 minutes.

3. Heat the oil until it's very hot and the fry the patties in batches until golden brown. Drain on kitchen paper. Ready to serve.
