Falafel is one of my most favorite things to make and eat. I, too, add bunches and bunches of fresh herbs when in season (parsley, cilantro, and mint). I only include the dry spices if I don't have the herbs. Have you ever had it made, or made it yourself, with fava beans or a combo of fava/chickpeas? I've come across this option in my Egyptian cookbooks, where fava is supposedly more traditional, but haven't tried it.
Very interesting, I’ll look for it here

No, I've never tried it with fava beans. Good idea - maybe I'll do that next time.
