- Pre-heat deep fryer to 180°C and cook Mini Falafel Patties in small batches for 3 minutes. (Alternative cooking methods include pan fry which can be found on the back of the bag).
- To serve, warm the tacos in a frying pan or oven and leave until slightly golden.
- Once the tacos are warmed, start to assemble by layering salad ingredients, followed by Mini Falafel Patties, crumbled. We suggest 3 Patties per taco but adapt the quantity based on your budget preference.
