Step 1

In a large bowl, soak the dried chickpeas in water overnight or for at least 8 hours. Note they will double in size so ensure there is room in the bowl

Step 2

Drain the soaked chickpeas and rinse well under cold water. Place in a food processor and pulse a few times so the chickpeas are chopped up a little

Step 3

Roughly chop the herbs and add them to the food processor along with the garlic clove, flour, cumin, baking powder and water, then season well with salt and pepper

Step 4

Pulse the ingredients together until they are all well combined and finely chopped. Don't over blend so you still have some texture

Step 5

Using wet hands, spoon a heaped tablespoon of the mixture in your hands and shape into balls. You should have 12-16 falafel balls, depending on the size *If the mixture feels too crumbly, add an extra spoon of water. If it feels too wet, add a spoon of flour

Step 6

Place the shaped falafel balls on a tray lined with parchment paper. Put the tray in the fridge and allow them to set for 30-60 minutes

Step 7

Heat up your preferred oil in a small pot over medium - high heat. Fry the falafel balls in batches for 2-3 minutes until they're golden brown, then place on a plate on paper towels to soak excess oil. More information on my homemade falafelAlternatively you can cook them with my air fryer recipe

Step 9

To make the tahini dressing, add the tahini, lemon juice, salt and 2 tablespoons of cold water in a small bowl or ramekin. Using a whisk or fork, whisk until there are no clumps and to achieve a runny and thick consistency *If its too thick, slowly add more cold water

Step 10

Assemble the falafel wrap by placing the wrap on a piece of parchment paper and smearing a few spoons hummus across the middle of the wrap in a vertical line. Top with a layer of lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and sumac onions or pickled onions

Step 11

Top with 4 falafel balls, drizzle with the tahini dressing and roll it up like a burrito. Wrap with the parchment paper for easy clean up and enjoy your delicious jam packed falafel wrap!
