This might be the falafel recipe that stirs up some controversy. Falafel is one of the most common street foods across the middle east, you’ll find it on almost every corner. From the western most point of Egypt to the Eastern most of Syria, you’ll find falafel (or Ta’amiyeh as they say in Egypt) everywhere. It’s a vegetarian blend of chickpeas, herbs, and a few spices that gets deep fried until golden crispy. They’re typically eaten at breakfast served as you see in the picture above or as a wrap if you’re on the go. I like the inside of my falafel to be green (more herbs) but others like it brown (more beans).
