  1. NICE RICE

    Place the rinsed rice in a pot with 150ml of salted water. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.

  2. MIX & REST

    Boil the kettle. In a bowl, combine the falafel mix, a pinch of salt, and 100ml of boiling water. Mix, but not for longer than 30 seconds. Cover and set aside for at least 10 minutes.

  3. TOASTED Almonds

    Place the Almonds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. GET DRESSED

    In a small bowl, combine the coconut yoghurt, the peanut butter, the Dressing, ½ the chopped coriander, and seasoning. Loosen with water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency and set aside.

  5. FRY THE FALAFELS

    Roll the falafel mixture into 4-5 balls and gently flatten to form mini patties. Return the pan to medium heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the falafel patties until golden and crispy, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel.

  6. GET BOWLED OVER!

    Time to plate up buddha bowl style! Make a bed of cooked rice. Top with the sliced Cabbage, the diced Cucumber, and the falafel patties alongside one another. Generously drizzle over the miso-peanut dressing. Garnish with the toasted almonds and the remaining coriander.
