Ingredients

  • 2 15 oz tin cooked chickpeas  drained
  • 1/3 cup fresh parsley 
  • 1/3 cup fresh kale leaves
  • 1/3 cup fresh coriander
  • 5 garlic cloves pressed 
  • 1 small yellow onion finely diced 
  • 2 tbsp raw sesame seeds 
  • 3 tbsp chickpea flour 
  • 2 tsp cumin 
  • 1 tsp ground coriander 
  • 1/2 tsp salt 
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp baking powder 
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • Avocado oil for frying 

For the Wraps

  • 4 flatbreads 
  • Hummus, Pickled red onion, Diced cucumber Diced tomatoes, Baby Spinach

For the Tahini Dressing

  • 2 tbsp tahini 
  • 2 tbsp 2 tbsp lemon juice 
  • 3 tbsp water 
  • 2 garlic cloves pressed 
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • In a food processor add the chickpeas, onion, garlic, spices and parsley. Process until a crumbly dough is formed, scraping down the sides if necessary, until well combined.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients and pulse until incorporated. Don't over-process to avoid getting a paste instead of a crumbly dough.
  • Transfer to a large bowl, cover with cling foil and refrigerate for an hour to set.
  • Remove from the refrigerator and scoop the dough into little patties.
  • Coat a large non-stick or cast iron skillet with avocado oil and heat. Add the patties and fry over medium heat for 4 minutes, swirling around frequently until golden and crispy. Flip and fry for 3 more minutes, then transfer onto a plate. The patties should have enough space between them to be easily swirled. If your pan isn't large enough, you can fry them in batches.
  • To assemble the falafel wraps, start by adding the dressing ingredients into a small jar. Lid the jar and shake well until a smooth, creamy dressing is formed. Set aside.
  • Warm the flatbreads into a skillet, then spread them with 1-2 tablespoonshummus, layer mixed greens, diced tomatoes, cucumbers and pickledonions. Top with 3-4 falafel pieces. Drizzle the tahini dressingover the falafels, roll and serve.
