Summer is coming- which means tomatoes! I am anticipating a delicious harvest but wanted to celebrate them a little early with this delicious Greek-inspired recipe.
Ingredients:
2 plum tomatoes
1 red onion
1⁄2 pound package falafel
2 Mediterranean pitas
4 ounces tzatziki
vinegar, oil, salt, pepper, garlic
Method:
Cut tomatoes into 1⁄2-inch pieces. Finely chop 1⁄4 cup onion and 1 teaspoon garlic .
In a medium bowl, whisk to combine 1 tablespoon vinegar and 2 tablespoons oil. Stir in tomatoes, chopped garlic , and onions; season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside until ready to serve.
Shape falafel into 4 ( 1⁄2-inch thick) patties.
Brush both sides of each pita lightly with oil. Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium. Add 1 pita at a time and toast until warmed through. Wrap in foil or a clean kitchen towel as you go to keep warm.
Heat 3 tablespoons oil in same skillet over medium-high. Add falafel and cook until golden-brown, 2–3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt.
Serve toasted pitas topped with falafel, tzatziki, and some of the tomato salad . Serve remaining salad alongside. Enjoy!
