Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut potato and carrot into bite-sized chunks. • Cut beetroot into small chunks.
• Place veggies on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with chermoula spice blend and season with salt. • Toss to coat, spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumber into rounds. • Pick and thinly slice herbs. Roughly chop roasted almonds. • Cut or tear each falafel bite into quarters (don't worry if they crumble!).
• In a large frying pan, heat olive oil (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people) over medium-high heat. • When oil is hot, cook falafels, tossing, until a deep golden brown, 2-3 minutes. • Remove pan from heat, then add apricot sauce and toss falafels to coat.
TIP: Ensuring the oil in the pan is hot before cooking gives the falafels a crispy texture and prevents them from sticking.
• In a second medium bowl, combine mixed leaves, cucumber, almonds, herbs and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste.
• Divide apricot-glazed falafels, chermoula veggies and almond salad between plates. • Serve with garlic dip. Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavour: Many enjoyed the apricot-glazed falafels, with some finding the combination of flavours outstanding and well-balanced.
- Ease of prep: Some found the falafels tricky to form and cook without falling apart; consider adding a binding ingredient.
- Suggestions: For crispier falafels, ensure the oil is hot before cooking. Add more apricot sauce for extra flavour.
- Portions: Several reviewers mentioned the falafel mix could have been more substantial; consider adding extra chickpeas.
- Texture: Some found the falafels a bit dry; grated carrot in the mix helps keep them moist.
- Vegetables: Roast the beetroot separately or substitute it, as it takes longer to cook than other vegetables.
