Инструкции
- Make the falafel crust: put the dried chickpeas in a large bowl and add cool water to cover by 2 inches. Soak in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours or up to 48. Drain and rinse thoroughly. In a bowl of a food processor, combine all the falafel ingredients, and pulse to coarsely grind. The mixture shouldnât be entirely smooth.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Put the salmon, skin side down, on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil. Spoon the falafel mixture onto the salmon and smooth with a spatula to cover completely. Put the baking sheet into the oven and roast until the salmon is just cooked through but still translucent in the center, about 10 minutes.
- Put the salmon under a broiler for 5 more minutes until golden brown.
- To serve, transfer the salmon to a serving platter by holding 2 opposing corners of the parchment paper and lifting the whole thing off the baking sheet and onto the platter, parchment and all. Spoon the tahini sauce into a serving bowl and garnish with lemon wedges.
- to make the Tahini sauce: Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well with a whisk until smooth and creamy. Taste for salt, paprika and lemon. (You can do it in a food processor as well).
