Day 46 - Falafel (Middle Eastern / Mediterranean)

I've gone through maybe 1/2 a dozen recipes for falafel, but it never tasted quite right as the my ideal version of Falafels. I'm referring to those from Mamoun's Falafel at NYC, that is until 2 weeks ago, when I stumbled upon Yotam Ottolenghi's recipe in his book 'Jerusalem'.
