3tablespoonscoconut oilor other oil, for frying

Harissa paste (optional)

Instructions
Combine the flour with the other dry ingredients, mix in the chopped onion and slowly start incorporating the hot water. You should get a non-sticky dough that can be shaped easily.
Let the mixture sit for 10 minutes before forming it into small patties.
Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan/skillet over a medium heat. Depending on the size of your pan you will need to fry them in at least 2 batches. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan. Lower the heat and let the falafels fry for 3–4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
Notes
If you wish to build your spicy food tolerance, serve these with plenty of harissa paste, as well as tofu mayonnaise to cool!
