Tamiya or Taamiyah is basically like falafel. Tamiya is prepared with little difference in Egypt, Sudan or middle eastern country. In Egypt Fava beans are used to make Tamiya while in Sudan they use chick peas. Along with chick peas, dill leaves are key ingredient of Tamiya. The Sudanese use chick peas for making Tamiya. I made Tamiya using split gram and additional Indian spices.
