  • Meanwhile, peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.
  • 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, cover and set aside. 
Simmer the Sauce
