falafel burger

Fried legume sandwich

A falafel burger substitutes a falafel patty—made from ground chickpeas or fava beans, herbs, and spices—for the meat in a traditional burger.

Served in a bun with toppings like tahini, hummus, or pickled vegetables, it offers a vegetarian alternative that bridges Middle Eastern and American fast-food traditions: I'll have the falafel burger with extra tahini.
