Cooking Steps

Prepare
1
  • Give the eggplant a 1cm dice.
  • Heat a light drizzle of olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the eggplant for 2 - 3 minutes.
  • In the meantime, cut the bell pepper into strips.
Pickle the shallot
2
  • Slice the shallot into half rings.
  • Add the shallot to a small bowl along with the white wine vinegar and season with salt, then set aside (see Tip).
  • Add the bell pepper, the dried apricots and Middle Eastern spice mix to the eggplant and fry everything together for 5 - 7 minutes. Deglaze with 1 tbsp of water per person.

Tip: if you don't like raw shallot, fry it with the eggplant and bell pepper instead of pickling it.

Cook the falafel
3
  • Heat a light drizzle of olive oil in another frying pan over medium-high heat. Smash the falafel and fry for 2 - 3 minutes per side or until crispy.
  • In a bowl, mix together the tahini, zhoug and vegan mayonnaise.
  • Heat the tortillas in the microwave for 1 - 2 minutes at 700 watts (see Tip).

Tip: if you don't have a microwave, you can instead heat a clean frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the tortillas for 1 - 2 minutes on each side, or until golden-brown. Keep warm over a low heat until ready to serve.

Serve
4
  • Fill the tortillas with the mixed lettuce and the fried eggplant, bell pepper and dried apricot.
  • Top with the crispy falafel.
  • Drizzle over the tahini-zhoug dressing 
  • Garnish with the pickled shallot.
