What Is a @Belfalafel?
In the Middle East, falafel is everywhere … and everyone eats it. And no wonder – it’s a tasty, healthy, affordable fast food. Prepared using ground chick peas, garlic, herbs and spices, falafel is traditionally served in pitta bread with salads and sauces.
In @stgeorgesBT1, falafel balls are cooked before your eyes, so you’ll always get them at their crispiest. Belfalafel have worked hard to perfect the recipe and made it their own. They believe theirs is the lightest, tastiest falafel in Belfast. Available at St Georges Market, Belfast.
Salads, Sauces and Toppings
Salads and toppings are an integral part of the Belfalafel experience – not just an accompaniment. All our salads are carefully selected, freshly prepared and dressed only in a little lemon juice. Don’t forget our aubergines, grilled with garlic and olive oil until they melt in the mouth.
Our sauces are homemade with the best ingredients – fresh cucumber, mint and yoghurt for their tzatziki; sesame-seed paste, olive oil and lemon juice for their tahini sauce; tomatoes, peppers and red chilli for their chilli vinaigrette. All falafels are served with hummus for an extra chick-pea and garlic hit. Try some for free at their stall, but be quick! It runs out fast.
Not Just for Vegetarians
Falafel is a protein-rich, high-fibre meal. It’s made from chick peas, which are low in fat and packed with vitamins. They may even help to lower cholesterol.
And it’s not just for vegetarians. In fact, even though all the food served at Belfalafel is 100% meat free, they are not vegetarians themselves, they just love falafel!
Try their falafel sandwiches for breakfast. They make a great energy-boosting alternative to the breakfast bap.
