Panfried Falafel (Ground Fenugreek)

Nearly raw chickpeas are the key to the toothsome texture of these falafel patties, which are seasoned with ground fenugreek, a spice that lends a pleasant bitterness and delicate sweetness. Tuck the patties into warmed pita bread rounds along with red leaf lettuce, a spoonful of chopped tomatoes, and a drizzle of plain yogurt or a dollop of tahini.
