Recipe's preparation

    Falafel
  1. Pre-heat oven to 200 degrees celcius (hot). Line two baking trays with baking paper and set aside 

    Place buckwheat into the bowl and mill 20 seconds speed 9. Set aside (no need to wash the bowl) 

    Add all herbs to the bowl and chop 5 seconds speed 7. Scrape down the bowl. 

    Add the pepitas and pistachios, onion and garlic and turbo for 2 seconds to combine. 

    Add remaining ingredients and with the help of the spatula mix for 30 seconds speed 7 or until well combined. You may need to stop and use the spatula to re-distribute the ingredients. 

    This recipe will make 25 golf ball sized falafels. 

    Bake in a hot oven for 30 minutes - turn them over at 15 mins.  They should be browning on the outside but soft on the inside. 

     

  2. Sweet Chilli Sauce (low sugar)
  3. Place all ingredients in the bowl (other than the arrowroot and salt) and blend for 7 seconds speed 7 or until desired consistency is achieved. You still want to be able to see pieces of chilli and garlic. 

    Cook for 6 minutes 120degrees speed 1.5

    With blades rotating on speed 4 add in the arrowroot and continue to stir until the arrowroot is distributed. 

    Add sea salt to taste 

    Store in a glass jar in the fridge - it will last for a few weeks. 

Tip

For a hotter sauce - keep some or all of the seeds. 

These two recipes are delicious with hommus and a tabouli salad (I use quinoa)

    Yum! I'm not usually a fan of falafels but these were very impressive. They were a bit crumbly but had a lovely crunch and were very moorish (and filling!). Didn't make the sweet chilli sauce as I had an open bottle in the fridge but will definately try next time. These will be a regular in our household, thank you for sharing.

    Loved these! I used half chickpeas & half broad beans, left out coriander & they came out great. I also sprayed with coconut oil before putting in the oven to ensure a golden finish. They were a bit crumbly inside but delish. Teamed up with quinoa tabouli & Vegan GF wraps for a delicious dinner. Also made enough to pop some in the freezer. Thanks for the great recipe!
