  1. Ninujan:

    Strictly speaking there is no such thing as Egyptian falafel. First off it’s called ta3miyya, and secondly it’s made from fava beans. The concept is the same though.

    • aziza:

      @Ninujan There is Egyptian Falafel, of course! I am Egyptian and I have had Egyptian falafel all my life. Ta3amiyya is another way of saying falafel in certain places like Cairo and the Delta.
