Method

Step 1

To make the hummus: Put all of the ingredients in a food processor and blend until it reaches the desired consistency.

Step 2

To make the falafel: Add the chickpeas, garlic, onions and all the herbs and spices into a food processor and blend until fairly fine. Then add the baking soda and flour. Form into small ‘patties’. Heat oil in a pan with enough oil to submerge the patties about half way. Fry each patty for 3-4 minutes (until golden brown) on each side. Remove from the heat and pat with paper towels to absorb the oil.

Step 3

Once the hummus and falafel are ready; toss the tomatoes and onions in salt, pepper and olive oil.

Step 4

Place the tortilla on a flat surface. Place the lettuce leaves on the tortillas, next spread some hummus in the centre, then add the falafel. Top with tomatoes, onions, and fold into a wrap and serve immediately.
