'''Falafel''' is a fried ball or patty made from spiced [[fava beans]] and/or [[chickpeas]]. It is a popular form of fast food in the Arab World, where it is also served as a mezze. | |||
Falafel is usually served in [[pitta bread]], either inside the pita, which acts as a pocket, or wrapped in a flat pita. In many countries falafel is a popular street food or fast food. The falafel balls, whole or crushed, may be topped with salads, pickled vegetables and hot sauce, and drizzled with [[tahini]]-based sauces. Falafel balls may also be eaten alone as a snack or served as part of a mezze. During Ramadan, they are sometimes eaten as part of an iftar, the meal which breaks the daily fast after sunset. | |||
Falafel has been part of the diet of Egyptians and the people of the Arab World (Muslims, Christians and Mizrahi Jews among them) for centuries. | |||
