Caesarea Falafel

   Tas,

1) Israel is Evoo producing, thus, this is what I employ.

2) As Ahron, stated and he is an expert in Israeli cuisine, yeast is not required, however, yeast powder is yeast ... 

3) It is up to you; as Ahron suggested, you can grate some onion. 

4) I use yeast, so the chickpea balls are not so flat ... 

5) I have a Greek Pita connection, and thus, use Pita, however, one can use Focaccia too ... or an Israeli flat bread home baked. However, this is up to your local availability. 

6) I am more fond of Tzatziki and Tahine is outrageously expensive in Madrid ... So, I usually make either Tzatziki or a Greek Melitzanosalata ( similar to babaghanuj ) or  a  Tyrosalata with mine; a Greek roasted red pepper & chili pepper & feta dip to go along ... 

All my Greek classics are in Greece Section.

HAVE FUN AND ENJOY THE FALAFEL ... 

Kind regards. 
Margi.

	The only venues I have ever seen Falafel in ( in Madrid ) are Turkish, in the city centre. They prepare them in a large pita type round and fill them with with small patties of falafel, shredded salad, tahini dressing and tomato. Great for a quick meal on the run ... Have nice weekend. Margi.

	Yes! Falafel is served in Pita bread by a local street vendor as well as local Moroccan restaurants. Delicious!
