Fried ball in a pita (7)

I believe the answer is:

falafel

(Other definitions for falafel that I've seen before include "Deep-fried ball of ground chickpea" , "Middle Eastern deep-fried ball of chick-peas etc" , "food item" , "vegetarian snack" , "Cake of ground chickpeas" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
