Indian Red Lentil Falafel

You have probably heard of falafel made from chickpeas, but have you heard of falafel made from red lentils? throughout india, red lentil falafel is a fast-food item available at railway stations and from street vendors. Crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside, most of its flavoring comes from the spices. I usually whip up a batch in the winter when seasonal produce is in short supply. Legumes of all kinds are an ideal dish during the colder months because they keep for a long time.
