One thing to note - this does not reheat well. Leftovers are definitely not an option on this one.
Brian didn't like the Tahini sauce, but I thought it was a fabulously tangy addition to the sandwich. Adding some tomatoes will give an extra bit of moisture, as this can be a bit dry (depending on the pitas you get). Unfortunately, whole wheat pitas in Singers are on the dry side :(
This is Brian's sauceless sammich
- 15 1/2 oz canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1/4 cup onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped (I used parsley - have I told you that I loathe cilantro?)
- 1 medium garlic clove, minced
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1/4 tsp ground coriander
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp olive oil
- 2 Tbsp Tahini (sesame butter)
- 2 Tbsp water
- 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 4 large wheat pitas
- sandwich vegetables, such as lettuce, tomato, red onion, cucumber, etc. (I had cucumber, onion, and lettuce, while Brian had tomato, onion, and lettuce)
Preheat oven to 400F.
Heath oil in a large, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook until golden brown, flipping once, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer skillet to oven and bake about 10 minutes more.
Meanwhile, whisk together Tahini, water, and lemon juice in a small bowl.
To assemble sandwiches, add one falafel patty to each pita and drizzle with 1 Tbsp of Tahini sauce. Add vegetables of your choice.
