Falafel (Arabic: فلافل falaafil (help·info), Hebrew: פָלָאפֶל; also known in Egypt and Sudan as ta'meya, Arabic طعمية), is a fried ball or patty made from spiced fava beans and/or chickpeas. It is a popular form of fast food in the Middle East, where it is also served as a mezze (snack or tapas). The word "falafel" is the plural of the Arabic word فلفل (filfil), meaning pepper.[1] Variant spellings in English include felafel and filafil.
Falafel is usually served as a sandwich wrapped in pita bread, and outside the Middle East, the term "falafel" commonly refers to this sandwich—falafel in a pita is typical street food or fast food. Along with the falafel balls, which may be crushed onto the bread or added whole, topping variations are usually included. Falafel balls may also be eaten alone as a snack or served as part of a mezze. During Ramadan they are sometimes eaten as part of an iftar, the meal which breaks the daily fast after sunset.

January 7th, 2009 at 17:58:46 you can get them at any of your local indian grocery store. or any middle eastern or international grocery store. i even saw tahini at our Martin's grocery store. good luck
January 7th, 2009 at 18:21:45 is any body tell me where from i can get a tahini sauce please
January 7th, 2009 at 18:44:44 As do I! Crush canned chick peas and drain them. Then mix in a bit of your favorite spices with chopped onion, flour and garlic. Then deep fry. Top with yogurt or mustard,add lettuce,tomatoes,etc. And enjoy.
January 7th, 2009 at 19:07:43 i absolutely adore falafel wraps but i can't get that 'falafel mix' stuff in pakistan *sniff sniff*
January 7th, 2009 at 19:30:42 yeah, i've heard that from my Egyptian friends, my Falfel video made from scratch will be coming out next week :)
January 7th, 2009 at 19:53:41 Yeah in Egypt we make it with fava beans that are ground with about 29839832 tons of parsley and an egg white so it gets fluffy. They end up green on the inside. We also call them ta'miyya.
January 7th, 2009 at 20:16:40 yum ! i reckon it would be good with some yoghurt mixed in the tahini mix mmm
January 7th, 2009 at 20:39:39 Correct, original falafel is made with fava and garbanzo beans. That video will be coming soon along with Kibbeh. Kibbeh is amazing and has many different ways it can be served, I will show them all :) Stay tuned!
January 7th, 2009 at 21:02:38 In some Middle-Eastern countries like Lebanon and Egypt, I believe they use fava beans. I prefer it. Is the recipe the same except you use fava beans? I would also like the recipe for kubbeh:A handmade delicacy consisting of a golden brown shell of racked wheat filled with minced beef, onions and pine nuts.
