Falafel Burger

Falafel Burger

A falafel burger is a flavorful vegetarian alternative to traditional beef or chicken burgers. The patty is made primarily from ground chickpeas or fava beans, which are spiced with herbs such as parsley, cilantro, and garlic, then seasoned with cumin, coriander, and other spices. These ingredients are blended together, formed into a patty shape, and typically pan-fried or baked until the outside is crisp and golden while the inside remains tender and moist.
