Falafel is one of the most popular foods in Egypt, it’s always served fried and made out of peeled beans, It’s also made in The Levant area (mainly Syria and Lebanon) but using Hommus

In my recipe for Falafel dough pizza I used orange lentils and replaced the traditional cooking method (frying) with oven baking, the outcome of using another type of pulses for creating an innovative recipe has been quite satisfying
