Falafel Smash Wraps

Recipe adaped from Dr. Vegan at Vegeanrecipe_ideas.

Ingredients:

  • 14 oz. can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 c. parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 c. cilantro, chopped
  • 1 TBSP flour
  • 1 tsp. cumin
  • 1 tsp. coriander
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes
  • 3/4 tsp. salt
  • Olive oil
  • Tortillas
  • Serve with pickles, tomatoes, onion, and/or parsley and garlic mayonnaise sauce: mayonnaise and garlic to taste

Directions:

  1. Falafel Mixture: In a food processor, add the chickpeas through salt, and pulse to combine. Mixture will be quite crumbly. While pulsing, add enough olive oil so that the mixture comes together and doesn’t crumble. Add mixture to a bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up.
  2. Prepare Falafel Smash Wrap: Take a tortilla and press a thin layer of the mixture firmly onto the entire surface of the tortilla. If mixture is dry, crumbly, or won’t stick to the tortilla, mix in some more olive oil. I was able to get 3 smash wraps on 8 inch tortillas.
  3. Cook Falafel Smash Wrap: Heat a skillet over medium high heat; then add olive oil to the skillet. Once olive oil is hot, add the smash wrap falafel mixture side down and cook for 5-7 minutes, until mixture is crisp and browned. Carefully, with 2 spatulas flip the tortilla over to heat the tortilla for 30 seconds, and then remove from skillet.
  4. Assemble: Take a falafel smash wrap and spread desired amount of garlic mayonnaise sauce, and then add pickles, tomatoes, onion, and/or parsley, and then roll up and slice.
