Ingredients

Falafel

  • 1 carrot, grated
  • 2 packs fresh basil falafel mix

Salad

  • 1/2 telegraph cucumber, diced
  • 2 tomatoes, diced
  • 1 carrot, grated
  • 1/2 pack feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 pack orange saffron dressing

Hummonaise

  • 1/2 pack hummus
  • 1 Tbsp mayo

To Serve

  • 10 mini wholemeal pita breads
  • 1 baby lettuce, shredded

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C and BBQ hotplate to medium (if using). Prep falafel. In a bowl, combine carrot with falafel mix. Use a Tbsp measure to scoop out falafel mixture and roll into patties.
  2. Prep salad. In a large bowl, toss salad ingredients together and season to taste.
  3. Cook falafel. Heat a drizzle of oil in a fry-pan on medium heat. Cook falafel in batches, for about 3 minutes each side, until golden and cooked through. Add more oil as needed. Set falafel aside on a paper towel. Alternatively, do this on the BBQ.
  4. Warm pita. Place pita breads on a lined oven tray, then warm in oven for about 4 minutes.
  5. To finish. Combine hummus and mayo in a small bowl. Prep lettuce.
  6. Serve pita breads filled with lettuce, hummonaise, falafel and salad.
