Blend the drained garbanzo beans and fava beans in your food processor. 
Mix all the remaining ingredients and let the mixture stand for 1 hour. 
Form into 2 inch patties. 
Deep-fry in 375° oil until toasty brown and crunchy on the outside; about
3-4 minutes. 
Fill pita bread with falafel and your choice of condiments such as sliced
tomatoes, Turkish salad, sliced onion, tahini, sliced cucumber, hot green
peppers, lettuce. 

Makes about 24 patties (6 sandwiches). Falafel balls can also be served
separately as appetizers with dips.

ChupaNote: Middle Eastern markets will have cracked shelled fava beans.
After you drain them, spread them out on a flat tray or plate to dry. You
want as much of the moisture gone as possible.
