Cooking Steps
Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Cut potato into bite-sized chunks. Cut beetroot into 1cm 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, grate carrot (see ingredients). Thinly slice cucumber into rounds. Pick and thinly slice herbs. Roughly chop roasted almonds.
In a medium bowl, combine carrot, falafel mix, currants, fine breadcrumbs and a pinch of salt. Using damp hands, roll and press heaped tablespoons of falafel mixture into small balls (3 falafels per person). Transfer to a plate.
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, turning, until browned and heated through, 5-7 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). Remove pan from heat, then add apricot sauce and toss falafels to coat.
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 cucumber, mint and almond salad between plates. Serve with garlic dip.

Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavour: Many enjoyed the apricot glaze and garlic dip, which enhanced the falafels' taste. Some found the chermoula seasoning on vegetables delicious.
- Ease of prep: Several customers struggled to keep falafels together during cooking; they often fell apart or stuck to the pan.
- Suggestions: Consider baking falafels in the oven with a light olive oil coating instead of frying. Adding an egg might help bind the mixture.
- Portions: Some felt the falafel portion was small; consider increasing the amount of falafel mix provided.
- Texture: For crunchier falafels, try using less carrot in the mix or cooking them slightly longer.
