Falafel Sandwich

A popular recipe from the Middle East. Falafel is a deep-fried ball or patty made from ground chickpeas, fava beans, or both. Falafel is a traditional Arab food, usually served in a pita, which acts as a pocket, or wrapped in a flatbread. The falafel balls are topped with salads, pickled vegetables, hot sauce, and drizzled with tahini-based sauces. Falafel balls may also be eaten alone as a snack. I made these falafel sandwiches in iftar.It is delicious and healthy in its nutrition. Diet conscious family members can eat these falafel sandwiches without any hesitation. They are less spicy but delightful. I learnt this recipe from chef Mehboob khan and it is too good.
