Easy Peasy 20-Minute Green Falafel Curry
A combination that may seem odd at first but actually is incredibly delicious! Spicy, saucy curry in combination with fluffy rice and crispy falafel. Plus a bunch of veggies, so we make sure to get all or greens in. Ready in 20 minutes and tastes like heaven!
What you will need
- 100 g (green) curry paste usually, this is around 2 packs (green is the spiciest, if you want it less spicy, you can choose a different one)
- 1 can coconut milk
- 600 g veggies I like to use zucchini, broccoli, peas, mushrooms, bok choy, carrots, ... whatever you have on hand)
- 1 tbsp oil
- 16 falafel (premade e.g. from the store)
- 2 spring onions
- 1/2 cucumber
- rice to serve with
How to
-
Start by preheating the oven to 200°C. Lay the falafel onto a baking tray and bake them for around 10-15 minutes until they are warm and crispy again.
-
Start preparing your side (like rice or quinoa)
-
In the meantime chop the veggies into bite-sized pieces. Combine the curry paste with about one third of the coconut milk. Then heat up the oil in a pot and fry the curry-coconut mixture for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the veggies and stir-fry for another 3 minutes before pouring in the coconut milk and letting it simmer for about 10-15 minutes until the veggies are soft.
-
Once the veggies and the falafel are done we can plate the curry. Add the grain to a bowl, scoop in the curry and top with the falafel and some finely sliced cucumber and spring onions and garnish with fresh cilantro! Enjoy!
