Cooking Steps

Cook the Chips
1
  • Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
  • Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm chips (peeling optional).
  • Pop the chips onto a large (lined) baking tray.
  • Drizzle with oil, season well with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
  • When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn the tray halfway through.

TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

Prep the Veg
2
  • Trim the green beans.
  • Roughly chop the chives (use scissors if you prefer).
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
Boil the Green Beans
3
  • When the potatoes have 10 mins left to cook, boil a pot of salted water.
  • When boiling, add the green beans and cook until tender, 3-5 mins.
  • Once cooked, drain in a sieve and pop back in the pot, off the heat.
  • Season with salt and pepper, add a knob of butter. Set aside and cover to keep warm.

TIP: If you're in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

Warm the Falafel
4
  • While the green beans are boiling, place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • When hot, fry the falafel for 3-5 mins, turning frequently for even cooking.
  • Remove from the pan, set aside and cover to keep warm.
Simmer the Sauce
5
  • Return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil
  • Once hot, add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 secs.
  • Stir in the creme fraiche, stock, half a sachet of Italian herbs (per 2P) and 75ml water (per 2P).
  • Bring to the boil and simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 mins.
  • Once thickened, stir in three-quarters of the chives. Season to taste with pepper, then remove the pan from the heat.
Divide and Serve
6
  • Divide the falafel between plates, drizzling the sauce over the top.
  • Sprinkle over as much of the remaining chives as you like.
  • Serve with chips and green beans alongside.
