Falafel Wraps With Grilled Eggplant - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    14 oz can chickpeas, drained, rinsed
    10 oz frozen lima beans, thawed
    1/3 cup flour
    1 bunch parsley leaves
    1 bunch mint leaves
    6 None spring onions, thinly sliced
    1 None medium egg
    2 cloves garlic, crushed
    1 tsp ground cumin
    1 tsp ground coriander
    6 None baby eggplants, thinly sliced lengthwise
    None None oil for deep-frying
    8 oz baba ghanoush dip
    2 oz baby arugula
    1/2 None red onion, thinly sliced
    6 None pita breads
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.
