How to cook

Plating & presentation

Build the bowl in sections — rice on one side, salad on the other, falafel in the centre. Drizzle tahini sauce over everything and add a wedge of lemon. The contrasting colours make it visually striking.

Dana's tip

Using dried soaked chickpeas (not tinned) is non-negotiable for falafel. Tinned chickpeas are too wet and the falafel will fall apart. Soak overnight and use raw.
