1 teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro

1 teaspoon fresh lime juice

1/2 teaspoon red wine vinegar

1 (16 ounce) can chickpeas, drained

1/2 medium onion, chopped (about 1/2 cup)

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

3/4 teaspoon hot red pepper sauce

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper

3 scallions, chopped

1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Make mayonnaise: Process egg, mustard, and salt in food processor or blender until mixed. With machine running, add oil in thin, steady stream and process until emulsified. Transfer mayonnaise to small bowl and stir in remaining ingredients. Refrigerate covered until ready to serve.

Make fritters: Process chick-peas, onion, flour, eggs, garlic, red pepper sauce, salt, and pepper in food processor or blender just until slightly chunky, 5-6 pulses. Transfer to mixing bowl and stir in scallions and parsley.

If serving fritters hot, heat oven to 250 degrees.

Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until small drop of batter makes lively sizzle. Drop batter by 1/2 tablespoonfuls into oil and flatten slightly with spatula. Fry until bottom is brown, 1-2 minutes, then turn and brown second side. Transfer fritters to paper towels to drain. Keep warm in oven or let cool to room temperature. Repeat with remaining batter.

Serve with pepper mayonnaise.
