Ta’ameya (Egyptian Falafel)

The Egyptian Taameya is made with split fava beans unlike the falafel made with chickpeas…. This falafel has a unique texture and flavor….Egyptian ta'ameya is made with a good amount of herbs that gives it a special taste and flavor as well as this vibrant green color from the inside.
Most Egyptian love to eat Ta’ameya in pita bread (or other local bread called baladi) with salad, tahini sauce and pickled eggplant...

Ingredients:
400 g split fava beans
6-7 green/spring onions (75 g)
1 medium onion
5 large garlic cloves
1 cup chopped cilantro (50 g)
½ cup chopped dill (25 g)
½ cup chopped parsley (25g)
2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cumin
2 teaspoon coriander
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon baking soda (1/4 teaspoon for half the quantity)

To top the Ta’ameya:
3-4 tablespoon coriander seeds (can be replaced with ground coriander)
3-4 tablespoon raw sesame
Vegetable Oil for frying

Tips:
For herbs (parsely, cilantro and dill), I remove 90% of the stems at the bottom and then start chopping it.
After beating the Ta’ameya batter, if it's hard to form, you can place it in the fridge for 15-30 minutes.
