Preparation

For the falafel mixture, place chickpeas, beans, flour, parsley, mint, onion egg, garlic and spices into a food processor. Process until almost smooth, stopping to scrape down sides. Transfer mixture to a bowl. Chill, covered, at least 1 hour.
Meanwhile, for the eggplant, preheat a grill on high. Cook eggplant 1-2 mins each side, until golden brown.
Using floured hands, roll rounded tbsps of falafel mixture into balls. Heat oil in a wok or deep saucepan on high. When hot, deep-fry falafel balls in batches 5-6 mins, turning, until golden and crisp. Drain on paper towels.
To assemble, divide baba ghanoush, arugula, onion, eggplant and falafel balls between pita breads. Serve immediately.
