I didn't change anything from the original method, so head over to http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2530641/beetroot-falafel for the how to.
We served our falafel in pitta pockets with lettuce, cucumber, tomato, mayonnaise and tahini.
This recipe tastes even better made with vegetables from Community Harvest Whetstone :)
