Step 1

Prepare the falafel according to package instructions. When cooking, don't bash them about in the pan toooo much as they tend to fall apart. Rather turn and cook slowly on each side. You don't need much oil either, just keep the heat relatively low. You can also gently 'squash' the falafel as they're cooking so the sides flatten out.

Step 2

For the salad – chop the cucumber thinly, dice the red onion and halve or quarter the tomatoes. Grate the carrots and mix it all together. I usually stick all three in a mini food processor and it a very gently blitz to save time. Just pulse the button, don't hold it down.

Step 3

For the sauce – mix all the ingredients together in a bowl really well (with a fork or whisk is best).

Step 4

Serve the salad in a bowl, add the falafel and drizzle with sauce. Done!
