Falafel Wrap Sandwich

This delicious falafel wrap sandwich is packed with flavorful falafel balls, fresh vegetables, and a tangy tahini sauce.

Ingredients

  • Tahini sauce (1/4 cup)
  • Red onion (1/4, thinly sliced)
  • Cucumber (1/2, sliced)
  • Tomato (1, sliced)
  • Lettuce (1 cup, shredded)
  • Tortilla wraps (2)
  • Vegetable oil (2 tablespoons)
  • All (purpose flour - 1/4 cup)
  • Baking powder (1/2 teaspoon)
  • Black pepper (1/4 teaspoon)
  • Salt (1/2 teaspoon)
  • Ground coriander (1 teaspoon)
  • Ground cumin (1 teaspoon)
  • Fresh parsley (1/4 cup, chopped)
  • Garlic (2 cloves, minced)
  • Onion (1/2 medium, finely chopped)
  • Chickpeas (1 cup, cooked)

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, onion, garlic, parsley, cumin, coriander, salt, black pepper, and baking powder. Pulse until well combined but still slightly chunky.
  2. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the all-purpose flour. Mix until the mixture holds together.
  3. Form the mixture into small balls, about the size of a golf ball.
  4. Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the falafel balls until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on a paper towel.
  5. Warm the tortilla wraps in a dry pan or microwave for a few seconds to make them more pliable.
  6. Spread a spoonful of tahini sauce onto each tortilla wrap.
  7. Place a few falafel balls onto each wrap, followed by the shredded lettuce, sliced tomato, cucumber, and red onion.
  8. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling and roll tightly to form a wrap.
  9. Slice the wraps in half and serve immediately.
