1
Prepare the Falafel
If using store-bought falafel, follow the package instructions. If making from scratch, blend chickpeas, garlic, onion, parsley, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper, then form into balls and fry until golden brown.
2
Assemble the Pita Pocket
Cut the pita bread in half and open each half to create a pocket. Fill each pocket with 3 falafel balls, a drizzle of tahini sauce, mixed greens, diced tomato, and cucumber slices.
3
Prepare the Sides
Serve the falafel pita pockets with hummus and tabbouleh on the side. Drizzle the hummus with olive oil for extra flavor.
4
Serve with Dessert
Finish the meal with two pieces of baklava for a sweet touch.
