- Shape the falafel. Scoop the falafel into 2 tablespoon-sized balls (a small ice cream scoop works well for this) and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. The mixture should hold together enough to form round balls using your hands, though it might be slightly loose. If it doesn't stick together at all, mix in a little more flour until it does.
- Heat the oil in a 10-inch straight-sided skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350Β°F. To check oil temperature, throw a bread crum or some corn flour to the oil, if it floats right a way and start to bubble, the oil is hot enough to fry.
- Fry. Gently lower at most 4 falafel at a time into the hot oil and fry until deep golden-brown, flipping them halfway through, 2 to 3 minutes total per batch. Check the coloraturas until it looks golden brown but not too dark. Remove the cooked falafel to a paper towel-lined baking sheet.
