I am an Arab i am eating Falafel almost every day, i can tell from the shape and final result it is very good and professional, when you see the falafel greeny from inside and browny and crispy from outside and not fragile that an excellent falafel .

Hello, for those who say their falafel fell apart while frying, add a 4 tablespoons of flour to the mixture, the flour helps the falafel held its shape. (It could be less or more than 4 depending on your anount) I also made it with canned chickpeas it turned out great. Thank you for the video! Subscribed :)

I made this today. I substituted the bread crumbs into 2 tbs of corn flour and I doubled the spices. Taste heavenly with garlic sauce! Thanks for the recipe.

Love the smell of my kitchen when I make these. I don't use breadcrumbs when I make them but I add sesame seeds and some fresh parsley to it as well.. I also use a temperature controlled deep fat fryer, safety first!

Hello chef, add the coriander seeds, become delicious, and make falafel the smallest grill, because if they are large, leave the inside part unripe and don't put crumbs😘🇮🇶

This is the best falafel recipe on youtube. Falafels are usually so dry, but this one came out super moist on the inside. Glad I came across this recipe.

To form falafel you can use the ice cream scoop flat a little bit to insure the inside is well done 👍
