Cooking Steps

Toast sesame seeds
1
  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add sesame seeds to the dry pan. Toast for 2-4 min, stirring often, until fragrant. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn.) Transfer to a plate. 
Make slaw
2
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice green onions.
  • Cut cucumber into 1/4-inch half-moons. 
  • To a medium bowl, add mayo, rice wine vinegar, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar, half the soy sauce and half the sesame oil. Whisk to combine.
  • Add coleslaw mix and cucumbers. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. 
Make sweet-soy glaze
3
  • To another medium bowl, add half the Honey-Garlic Sauce (use all for 4 servings), 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) water, remaining soy sauce and remaining sesame oil. Whisk to combine.
Pan-fry falafel
4
  • Reheat the pan (from step 1) over medium-high. Add 1 tbsp oil, then falafel. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches for 4 servings if needed, using 1 tbsp oil per batch.)
  • Lightly smash falafel into smaller pieces, then pan-fry for 4-8 min, tossing occasionally, until browned.
  • Remove from heat, add sweet-soy glaze, then toss to coat. 
Warm tortillas (optional)
5
  • Wrap tortillas in paper towels.
  • Microwave for 1 min, until tortillas are warm and flexible. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm the tortillas.)
Finish and serve
6
  • Divide tortillas between plates. 
  • Top with saucy falafel, then coleslaw.
  • Sprinkle green onions and any remaining sesame seeds over top.
