• 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!
