Chickpea Fritters

440 g can chickpeas (also called garbanzo beans)
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 Tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
2 small chillies, finely chopped *
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 Tablespoons milk
Freshly ground black pepper
3 Tablespoons plain flour
Oil for frying

Place all ingredients, except for flour and milk, in a bowl and mash until it is reaches the desired texture (we kept it quite chunky). Add flour and milk. Form into balls and flatten slightly. Fry until golden. Serve hot or cold.

* As we had chillies in a lot of other food, we left it when we cooked it today but it would be included on other occasions.
