Falafel Smash Wrap

🌱 By @Dr.vegan

Ingredients
For the falafel:
1 can 14.5 oz / 410 g chickpeas, drained and rinsed
½ cup 20 g chopped parsley
¼ cup 10 g chopped cilantro (coriander)
1 tablespoon plain flour
Seasoning:
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
1 teaspoon salt
For the wrap fillings:
Pickles your choice
Tomatoes sliced
Onion thinly sliced
Fresh parsley chopped
For the garlic tahini sauce:
½ cup 120 g tahini
2 garlic cloves crushed
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
⅓ cup 80 ml water
Other ingredients:
Arabic-style pita bread or tortilla wraps
Optional: Fresh greens like lettuce or arugula for extra crunch

Instructions
Prepare the falafel mixture:
In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, parsley, cilantro, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, red pepper flakes, salt, and flour. Pulse until the mixture is well combined but still slightly chunky.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up.
Cook the falafel:
Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Scoop about ¾ cup of the falafel mixture onto the surface of Arabic-style pita bread and press to spread evenly.
Place the pita on the skillet, falafel side down. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the falafel is browned and the bread becomes crispy on the edges.
For extra crispiness, flip the wrap and cook the other side for an additional 2 minutes.
Assemble the wraps:
Remove the falafel wrap from the skillet.
Top with garlic tahini sauce, pickles, sliced tomatoes, onions, and fresh parsley.
Fold and enjoy immediately!
