Falafel recipe, Felafel or Falafel is a Crispy and delicious Middle Eastern Snacks made with Chickpeas and some flavourful spices. In the Middle East, Falafel stands are on every street corner, eaten with Lebanese Pita bread, Hummus, tahini sauce, and pickles and salad. I made these a few days later after making the Unnakaya. I made all the versions of Falafel, Baked, Air Fried and fried in oil. I just loved it, Air Fried. Making the Falafel is a bit of Time Consuming. Soaking the chickpeas and fava beans, then mixing in the herbs, onions, and garlic but it was worth it. Do check the Fattoush Salad Recipe. Vegan 🌱and Vegetarian-friendly! Serve with homemade Tahini sauce and pickles.
Falafels are a great meat replacement and protein-rich. I love falafels and they are so quick and easy to make. These Falafels are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. We can make the most satisfying vegan sandwich out of these delicious Falafel. There are various ways of making Falafel this is one quick method of making Falafel with chickpeas.
The fried Falafel has to be eaten when they are hot or warm. They go well with any sweet or spicy chutney. Even tomato sauce. I am not so fond of Lebanese food But sometimes I wanna give a try to Shawarma and few of the Meditariean dishes. I want to try them at home. Anything makes at home is simply delicious.
