GET READY TO ROAST
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the sweet potato wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway.
TIME TO CARAMELISE
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, add the sliced Onion and fry for 7-9 minutes until caramelised, shifting occasionally. At the halfway mark, add a sweetener of choice (to taste) to caramelise it further. Remove from the pan and cover to keep warm.
PITA POCKETS
Return the pan, wiped down, to a medium heat. When hot, warm the pita for 30-60 seconds per side until heated through and lightly toasted. Alternatively, pop it on a plate and heat up in the microwave for 30-60 seconds. Slice the pita horizontally to make two pockets. Loosen the Tahini with a splash of water and season.
CRISPY FLAVOUR BOMBS
Return the pan to a medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, add the falafel balls and fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel. Slice each ball in half.
A FULFILLING FILLING
Fill the pita pockets with the shredded leaves, the sliced Tomato, the caramelised onion, the sliced Gherkins, and the falafel halves. Spoon over the hummus and sprinkle over the chopped parsley. Side with the roasted potato wedges and serve with the tahini for dunking. Beautiful, Chef!
