1) Do not use canned chickpeas for making Falafel/Taamiyya. Canned chickpeas have already been cooked and will be too soft and wet. 2) Use only dried and soaked chickpeas for making Falafel/Taamiyya. 3) Chickpea flour can also be used instead of all purpose flour. 4) Oil should not be too hot, otherwise the outside will cook too fast before the inside. 5) Make sure the Falafel/Taamiyya balls should not break apart while frying.
