George Duran
- Yield: 6 sliders
Ingredients
- 6Frozen falafels, slightly thawed
- Olive oil
- 6brioche or Hawaiian style slider rolls, cut in half lengthwise
For Slaw:- 1/2C. Mighty Sesame tahini
- 1tsp. Dijon mustard
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1/2tsp. Kosher salt
- 2C. Iinely shredded white cabbage
- 2medium radishes, cut into thin matchsticks
- 1/2C. grated carrots
- Bread and butter pickle slices, optional
Preparation
Pour olive oil into a sauté pan until it covers it completely and turn on medium-high heat. Once it begins to shimmer add falafels and fry on both sides until golden brown. Use a cup or a Ilat object to carefully press down on each falafel as it’s being fried to the shape and size of your bun. If it breaks apart it’s ok, you can assemble it later on each bun.
Make slaw by whisking Iirst four ingredients together in a small bowl and adding water until it’s the consistency of dressing.
Mix shredded cabbage, radishes and carrots in a medium bowl and mix in half of the tahini dressing to coat.
Assemble sliders by placing a few (optional) pickles onto an open bun, then a fried falafel on top. Spoon some tahini dressing on the falafel and then some slaw. Top with bun and serve immediately.
