Vegan Beet Falafel with Harissa Tahini Dressing

Vegan Beet Falafel with Harissa Tahini Dressing

This crispy Beet Falafel with Harissa Tahini Dressing is a colourful twist on traditional falafel! It’s baked instead of fried, making it an easier way to get your Mediterranean flavor fix

This isn’t your traditional falafel!

While I don’t think anyone would turn down classic, crispy falafel made with chickpeas, this version adds tender roasted beets to the mix — and it gives the falafel the prettiest pink colour. Not only that, it also adds a smooth texture thanks to the moisture in the beets.

Now, I know what you’re thinking: does it taste like beets?

The answer is no! With the parsley, ground coriander, and cumin, this beet falafel tastes very much like traditional falafel, with just a hint of sweetness. What it doesn’t have is a strong beet flavour, so even if you’re not a beet fan, you’ll enjoy this falafel. 

Ingredients:
Beet Falafel
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 cup flour – be that gluten free, einkorn or oat flour
  • 1 cup roasted beets
  • 2 cups chickpeas
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley or 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 5 cloves garlic
  • 3 tablespoons lemon/lime
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • Pita wrap, lettuce and tomato to serve

Harissa Tahini Dressing
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon harissa paste
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
