Traditional Falafel
Falafel have been eaten throughout the Mediterranean for centuries. Once a common street food throughout the region, it was quickly exported around the world and found a rapturous reception from all corners of the globe. McDonalds even once sold them in Egypt because they were so desired!
Our Traditional Falafel are made the classic way; from ground chickpeas, herbs and spices. The mixture is then formed into patties that should be deep fried for a texture that’s crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. Naturally vegan and vegetarian, these little beauties are great on their own or in wraps, pitas, sandwiches and salads. Here at Almaz we love to dip them with hummus and olive oil. Delicious!
