Falafel Patties are a flavorful plant-based staple originating from Middle Eastern cuisine. Made primarily from ground chickpeas or fava beans, these patties are blended with aromatic herbs like parsley and cilantro, spices like cumin and coriander, garlic, and onion, then shaped and traditionally deep-fried until crispy. Packed with protein and fiber from the legumes, falafel is a nutrient-dense option that helps support digestion and provides sustained energy. Additionally, its antioxidant-rich herbs and spices offer anti-inflammatory benefits. However, the frying process can increase caloric content and add unhealthy fats, making baked or air-fried versions a lighter alternative. Typically enjoyed in wraps, salads, or bowls, falafel patties are versatile and cater to vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free diets when prepared thoughtfully.
