Where i came from, Falafel is a recipe for anytime as snack even for Breakfast!!
I love falafel it is so simple and easy to make and today i'll share with you the full video recipe of how to make middle eastern falafel step by step, but first lets have small talk about it. A leatest search said that the origin of falafel is Egypt, and they called it Ta'mia but it is also fame in country as palestine, syria, lebanon, greek and even in saudi arabia.

Some people use fava beans instead of chickpeas and fresh cilantro instead of parsley, well i made it in a Levant way, you can say it is my own way since i'm from there LOL!
Today this simple recipe sweeping the world to be the first desired food for vegan and non vegan persons with different ways and different ingredients. Also, I like fried Falafel more than the baked one, i enjoy the taste and the savour is full of flavour and more crispy. But if you like it less calories, you can enjoy your healthy baked Falafel with the same recipe and ingredients.
