Mix the chickpea mix and the grated squash together in a bowl. If necessary, add a tablespoon of flour at a time, until the mixture can be formed into balls without falling apart..
Form the mixture into about 10 round balls (about 2 Tbsp of the mix for each one). Set on to a plate or pan..
Prepare about 1 inch (3 cm) of hot oil for frying the falafel. One hot, fry the the falafel in batches. Fry the first side until golden brown (it usually takes 2-3 minutes for me but depends on how how you have your oil)..
When the first side is golden brown, turn over with tongs and fry the other side..
Remove finished falafel onto a plate or rack lined with paper towels. Fry the rest of the falafel until all are finished..
Serve in pitas or with your favorite dipping sauce. I like making a sauce with strained/greek yogurt, a pinch of salt, and olive oil (sometime mix in diced cucumber or fresh cilantro)..
