Cookery School | How To Make the Perfect Falafels | Waitrose

We’re back at our Kings Cross Cookery School, where chef tutor Jack shows us how to make falafels. Vegan and simple to make, these falafels are made using dried chickpeas for a great texture and packed with herbs and spices for loads of flavour. You could adapt the recipe by adding chopped chilli, lemon zest or more herbs, or even rolling the falafels in sesame seeds before frying.

Jack’s favourite way of enjoying these is in a flatbread or a warm pitta bread and served with houmous, chopped salad, pickled chillies and a drizzle of chilli sauce.

We are the only supermarket to have our own Cookery Schools. You can join Jack and our other talented chefs to perfect your skills in a wide range of different classes, either virtually or in our specialised kitchens in Finchley Road, Kings Cross and Salisbury.
