South Sudan Tamia | Crispy Fava Bean Falafel

0 likes 0 reviews 4 views

South Sudan Tamia is a flavorful fried fava bean fritter made with soaked beans, fresh herbs, onion, garlic, and aromatic spices. Crispy and golden on the outside while tender and herb-filled inside, Tamia makes a delicious and satisfying snack or meal.

This traditional-style dish is especially enjoyable served warm with flatbread, fresh vegetables, tahini sauce, or a simple tomato salad. The combination of fava beans, parsley, coriander, garlic, and cumin creates a fragrant and savory flavor that makes these fritters perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a light dinner.

Cooking Method

Drain the soaked fava beans thoroughly and pat them dry.
Add the beans, onion, garlic, parsley, coriander, cumin, coriander powder, salt, and black pepper to a food processor.
Blend until you have a fine, coarse-textured mixture. Do not make it completely smooth.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the baking powder.
Cover and refrigerate for 20–30 minutes to help the mixture firm up.
Shape the mixture into small round or slightly flattened patties.
Heat enough oil in a deep pan over medium heat.
Carefully fry the Tamia in batches until crisp and golden brown on both sides.
Remove and drain on paper towels.
Serve hot with flatbread, vegetables, tahini sauce, or your favorite dipping sauce.
