    nerdshark's modifications to the falafel recipe at https://toriavey.com/toris-kitchen/2011/01/falafel/

    no parsley

    instead of ground coriander, substitute one fistful of chopped cilantro, probably about 1/3 cup, or more if you really like cilantro. alternatively, for convenience, you might be able to use cilantro chutney or adobo cilantro (culantro) cooking base. just mind the moisture of the 'dough'

    instead of flour, try to squeeze some moisture out of the soaked and ground chickpeas, the onions, and the cilantro. this will help the 'dough' stay together better without altering the flavor

    2tsp or more of black pepper

    add red pepper flakes to taste in addition to the cayenne pepper

    try half a tablespooon of cumin, and add more to taste

    add a generous pinch of paprika

    no cardamom

    peanut oil for frying is a MUST. it tastes the best.
