Falafel Mix

Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. Check package for best-by date.

For best flavor and texture, let the mixed falafel dough rest for at least 30 minutes before shaping.

Ensure your oil is hot enough before frying for crispy, evenly cooked falafel.

Don't overcrowd the pan when frying; cook in batches if necessary.

Bake falafel on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 400°F (200°C) for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, for a lighter option.

Pita bread

Tahini sauce

Hummus

Salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumber)

Pickled vegetables

Using too much or too little water: Dough that is too wet will be difficult to shape and may fall apart when cooking. Dough that is too dry will result in crumbly falafel.

Not letting the dough rest: Resting allows the ingredients to hydrate properly, leading to better flavor and a more cohesive mixture.

Frying in oil that's too cool: This will make the falafel greasy rather than crispy.
