If making falafel for the first time and you are afraid of the falafel disintegrating, then add 1-2 tbsp of refined flour for binding. 2. You can make the tahini dip in advance and store in the fridge.
This Middle-Eastern falafel is quite filling, and looks and tastes exotic as well, so you can serve it with tea or at a party too.
Serve the Lebanese falafel stuffed in pita bread as soon as you assemble it, because it will get soggy if you let it soak in the dressing for too long.
