Cooking Steps
• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan forced. • Finely grate 1/2 the carrot and cut the remaining carrot into bite-sized chunks. Cut kumara into bite-sized chunks. • Place chopped carrot and kumara on a lined oven tray. Sprinkle over garlic & herb seasoning, drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. • Roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine shredded cabbage mix, a drizzle of white wine vinegar and a good pinch of sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
• In a second medium bowl, combine grated carrot, falafel mix and fine breadcrumbs (see ingredients). • Using damp hands, roll and press heaped tablespoons of falafel mix into small balls (4-5 per person). Transfer to a plate.
• When the veggies have 10 minutes remaining, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with olive oil (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people). • When oil is hot, cook falafels, turning, until browned and heated through, 5-7 minutes (cook in batches if your pan is getting crowded). • Transfer falafels to a bowl, then add apricot sauce and toss to coat.
TIP: Ensuring the oil in the pan is hot before cooking gives the falafels a crispy texture and prevents them from sticking.
• To the cabbage, add baby spinach leaves and a drizzle of olive oil. Toss to combine.
• Divide roasted veggies, slaw and apricot-glazed falafels between plates. • Top with garlic dip and garnish with crushed roasted cashews. Enjoy!
