Falafel

Method

Falafel Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Falafel Mixture

    In a food processor, combine the drained chickpeas, parsley, cilantro, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until the mixture is well combined but still slightly chunky.

  2. 2

    Form the Falafel Balls

    Transfer the mixture to a bowl and add the flour. Mix well and form small balls or patties with your hands, about 1.5 inches in diameter.

  3. 3

    Fry the Falafel

    In a deep skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the falafel balls in batches and fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Vegan Tzatziki Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Tzatziki

    In a bowl, mix the grated cucumber, vegan yogurt, minced garlic, dill, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and adjust seasoning to taste.

Taco Assembly

  1. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the taco-sized tortillas in a skillet for a few seconds on each side. On each tortilla, layer some shredded lettuce, diced tomato, and 2-3 falafel balls. Drizzle with vegan tzatziki.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Serve the falafel tacos with a side of tortilla chips and salsa.
