My wife and I lived in Beni Suef where I worked. Our Egyptian housekeeper's father was a falafel street vender. She used to bring us Falafel in the morning and then bring us the prepared batter. I've eaten Falafel from all over the Middle East and North Africa and without a doubt, the Egyptian is the best. Thanks for the tip about the Fava Beans. Now, I'll look on your channel for some Ful Beans!

[@ausrm001]

Absolutely agree 💯

[@florencearbelaez423]

I agree with you Egyptian falafel is the best

[@fayhares]

What I love the most about this channel is the fact that I grew up hearing about these dishes in Egyptian movies, as a Moroccan who grew up watching Egyptian movies and tv shows, I would hear people talk about foul we taameya, kochary, molokheya, ma7chy, 7amam belfereek, makarona bel bechamel,... but I was never curious enough to look up the recipes. Now I feel closer to my fellow Egyptians and to their culture through watching this channel. Needless to say I am hooked! Outstanding job you guys!

Anyone watching this from Ulm, Germany should drop everything, go to Pingu Cafe in Münsterplatz and get yourself some authentic Egyptian falafel! Best falafels I've ever had. I always wondered what their secret was. Now I'm living in another country and can't get them anymore I'll be trying this recipe for sure.

[@norel457]

Bravo !!!! I love love love Egyptian food and of course, molokhia is the love of my life...Taameiya is also the best falafel kind out there.

No, you're not biased, you're completely right. Egyptian Ta'ameya is the best!❤️❤️❤️

Got the same feeling after first video i watched ! This made me actually subscribe rather than the awesome recipes. I love watching people like this, hence why i like watching food vlogger Mark Wiens. id love to meet more people like this in real life. They really brighten and add something besides the imense amount of sad and depressed people in the world.

[@LocalManMakesMusic]

Wow Obi, you never let me down. I made these tonight and they were amazing! The best falafel I ever had was 22 years ago from a little place in the middle of Cairo. They had a huge crowd of people rushing to the front waving their hands in the air to place their orders. It reminded me of footage you see of the New York Stock Exchange in the 80s. I’ll never forget it. These remind me so much of that delicious food I had so many years ago. Thanks for the recipe and thanks for everything you do with your channel.

[@chrisharker7037]

I love falafel and have bought countless "make at home kits" that have always left me disappointed, but I tried your recipe today and am completely blown away by it, so thank you thank you thank you!

[@oliveoiltears]

I remember I went to a local cafe regularly before lockdown, they had a freshly made falafel wrap that always blew me away - the falafel inside were bright green and always super moist and fluffy and flavourful. In hindsight they must've been Ta'ameya! No wonder they were so good...

[@SingingSealRiana]

to my knowlage every good falafel is that green, even the "normal" chickpea based ones. If it is not bright green it will not taste right. I am very curious to try these to see, how much of a difference the beans make, for otherwise, the recipe I am used too is pretty much the same ^^

[@autumnalburn]

These look (and sound) amazing! Thank you for the detailed recipe. My boyfriend is from Alexandria and he often talks about how much he misses ful and falafel, so I can't wait to try and make some of these for him.

[@arc-sd8sk]

lmfao it got me too

[@bargainghost]

I'm used to eating my family's Lebanese falafel. While I'll probably still use a mix of fava and chickpea, I have to say I am very impressed by the amount of technique involved in Egyptian falafel and learned a lot from watching this video!

[@MiddleEats]

Thank you. We honestly had no idea what the actual technique was, because Egyptian home cooks always use Bicorbonate of soda in their falafel to get it fluffy. After watching a bunch of videos from restaurants, my wife had the amazing idea to whip it up, and it worked perfectly. It's definitely quite technical, but it makes sense from a restaurants perspective. Fluffy taameya, has more air in it, so you can make more balls with the same amount of batter and therefore more money. And on the plus side, it's a lot lighter.

[@peterandersson3812]

During the pandemic I've perfected my skills in making houmous, baba ganoush and muhammara. (I'm sure there are spelling mistakes there. :-)) Falafel has been on my list of things to do next, and this version with the fluffy fava bean batter looks delicious. The algorithms suggested this video, and your channel looks very nice: I'll be sure to come back! It looks like you've grown from 20k to almost 50k subscribers in three months: good work and no doubt well deserved!

[@pajamakazama5840]

You two are amazing! Since my mother returned to Egypt, I've been dying to make authentic Egyptian food. Thanks to this channel, I was able to make Ful, Molokhia and now Ta'meya - food that I've grown up on and haven't had since my mom left years ago. Everything has tasted just as good as I remember thanks to your video providing me with the recipes I was missing to put it all together. Thank you so, so much.

[@MiddleEats]

No problem at all, and we're glad we can reconnect you with the tastes of your mother's kitchen! Hope you make many more meals, and be sure to make Kahk in Eid!

YUMMY goodness my favorite dish in Egypt 🇪🇬 oooooooweeee I looove falafel

[@marystestkitchen]

OMG I have to try!!!!!

[@exemplify6593]

Just wanted to say a couple things that I hope you and your wife get a chance to see! I've made this dish two days in a row (the first day, the 400 grams of beans did not make enough to feed my family of 5 haha). My second day making it (today) went phenomenally. They were delicious, fluffy, crispy, etc! I found you two through Adam Ragusea's podcast and I told myself I absolutely had to try making one of your recipes - I found this one and loved the concept of them. Well worth the effort! You've helped a small-town guy from Michigan introduce my family to Egyptian/Middle-Eastern cuisine. We try very hard to make a recipe from different cultures at least once a week, but we always had so much trouble finding food to make from Africa/M.E. This channel has allowed us to experience a culture/cuisine that would have otherwise been impossible for us to experience at home because of language barriers. Cheers!

[@ram9ajju]

Man, I will be honest. I see a lot of people from everywhere in the world in terms getting new recipes for vegan dishes. The authenticity of the dish ( which I value highly in a dish), history and insights on that are really motivating for me. I just feel positive while watching the videos and following the procedure. Made this and koshari, loved both of them to the core. Huge thank you for everything. Only here to spread the love for food to other people.

[@heidihendricks161]

Thank you for your great videos!! My daughters husband is Egyptian and they live in Cairo. I visit several times a year and LOVE Egypt. I miss Egyptian food when I’m home in the states. Now I can make it whenever I want!! :) Thanks, again!

This makes it look so simple and easy. I'm going to have to try this now. I could eat falafel every day and not get tired of it.

[@LovelyFatima]

THANK YOU SO MUCH for this recipe! I only had ta'ameya once when a visiting student from Cairo made them for a department party. I have *never* tasted falafel as good as that -- until this recipe! Delicious. 😊

[@ducksurfingalong]

Tried this recipe and it turned out DELICIOUS!!! Thank you so much for the detailed, well edited video. I had almost everything at home expect the spring onions so used roscoff onions instead. Will make sure to try it with spring onions at some point although not very easy to come by where I live. This makes for a much brighter in flavour type of fallafel than recipes I've tried before (love my usual Palestinian recipe) but something about ta'ameya is more satisfying. My favourite flavouring in here that I had never added/had in falafel before is the leek, it makes a massive difference.

[@MiddleEats]

Yes the leek is the key characteristicsl in Egyptian flavour and the whipped texture makes it super light and fluffy. Glad to hear it worked out well, and I'd love to see some photos. Re the onions, don't stress about it too much, whatever you have on hand works. Thanks for trying it

I've made many falafel recipes over the years and this is the one I always come back to. The texture is just superior. Also fava beans are immensely better than chickpeas nutritionally (around twice the protein and fibre per calorie). So happy to see how this channel has grown since this first came out.
