Nutritious meets delicious in this Quinoa Falafel recipe. They are crispy on the outside and tender and flavorful on the inside. Perfect for a wholesome family dinner or a nutritious snack, these falafels can be ready to enjoy in just about 30 minutes, making them an ideal choice for busy weeknights.
Combine all the falafel ingredients in a food processor and purée until the mixture forms a ball in the machine. You want the mix to form a 'dough', but be careful not to over-mix it, as that will make it too sticky. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Measure out dough into approximately 1 Tbsp. sized balls. Set a frying pan to medium heat. One the pan is warm, add enough high-heat suitable oil (such as avocado or coconut) to cover the bottom of the pan. Add falafel, a few at a time as to not crowd the pan. Let brown on all sides - I found the best way to do this was with a slight agitation of the pan. Serve with fresh veggies of choice and Yoghurt Tahini Sauce.
Wraps, sprouts, avocado, cucumber, peppers, greens, mint, hummus, olives, or tomatoes to serve.
