Egyptian Fava Bean Sandwich (Ta'miya Falafel)

Ah, the ultimate Egyptian street sandwich! As you wander through the alleyways of Cairo, the intoxicating aroma of these golden fava bean fritters envelops you at every corner. This ta'miya, the Egyptian version of falafel, is much softer and more fragrant than its Lebanese cousin, thanks to freshly ground fava beans and generous herbs. Each bite is a journey: the crispy exterior gives way to a tender, herbaceous heart, elevated by cumin. And served piping hot in pita bread with a creamy tahini sauce, it's pure bliss. So, ready to recreate this legendary street food at home?

Instructions

  1. 1

    Soak the dried peeled fava beans in cold water for at least 12 hours. Drain well.

  2. 2

    Blend the beans with onion, garlic, parsley, fresh cilantro, cumin, ground coriander, salt, pepper, and baking soda until you get a smooth but not too runny paste.

  3. 3

    Let the dough rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    Shape small balls or flattened patties from the dough.

  5. 5

    Heat the frying oil to 180°C (or until it shimmers) and fry the balls in small batches until golden brown (about 3-4 minutes). Drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Stuff each pita bread with the falafels, tomato slices, lettuce, and drizzle with tahini sauce. Press the sandwich tightly and enjoy hot!
