Soak the chickpeas in plenty of water overnight. Then drain and mince them. Finely chop the parsley and coriander. Finely chop the green parts of the spring onions. Mince the herbs and spring onion greens together with the chickpeas for a second time. Season the mixture with cumin, salt, and pepper, and mix in the baking powder. Let the mixture stand briefly. Form the chickpea mixture into small falafel cakes and fry them in a pan over low heat in hot clarified butter or oil. Dice the tomato and mix with the yogurt. Add all the spices. Mix well, let it sit, and season again before serving. Plate up the falafel and spiced yogurt and serve with a fresh salad.
