Method

For the Falafel

  1. 1

    Prepare the Falafel Mixture

    In a food processor, combine canned chickpeas, parsley, onion, garlic, cumin, coriander, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Blend until the mixture is coarsely ground but not pureed.

  2. 2

    Form the Falafel Balls

    Scoop out the falafel mixture and form small balls or patties using your hands. Place them on a plate and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Fry the Falafel

    Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the falafel in batches until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels.

For the Hummus

  1. 4

    Blend the Hummus Ingredients

    In a blender or food processor, combine canned chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, salt, and water. Blend until smooth, adding more water if necessary for desired consistency.

For the Salad

  1. 5

    Prepare the Salad

    In a bowl, combine diced cucumber, tomato, red onion, cilantro, lemon juice, and salt. Toss gently to combine.

For the Roti

  1. 6

    Make the Roti Dough

    In a large bowl, mix whole wheat flour and salt. Gradually add warm water and oil, kneading until a soft dough forms. Cover and let it rest for 30 minutes.

  2. 7

    Cook the Roti

    Divide the dough into small balls, roll each ball into a thin circle on a floured surface. Cook on a hot skillet for 1-2 minutes on each side until puffed and golden.

For the Sauce

  1. 8

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a bowl, mix vegan yogurt, sriracha sauce, and lemon juice until well combined.

Assembling the Kati Roll

  1. 9

    Assemble the Roll

    On a cooked roti, spread a generous amount of hummus, add 3-4 falafel balls, top with the fresh salad, and drizzle with the prepared sauce. Wrap the roti around the filling and serve warm.
