Tips and tricks

  • You can sprinkle some sesame on the falafels if you want to.
  • Use a medium-sized tip if you are using a mincer. The small tip over minces the ingredients and makes your falafels watery and deformed.

Background & History

Falafels are amazingly delicious, fast, and nutritious sandwiches and you make for your dinner. The only problem with this sandwich is that it requires too much oil, so I decided to make this fabulous sandwich healthy, without using any oil inside the oven, and have it as my diet meal after the gym.
