    Al Fez mix is easy to make and pretty damn tasty. Can add your own twist too.

    Think the ones I made last were a jamie oliver recipe

    tin of chickpeas
    tin of mixed beans
    blob of harrisa
    lemon juice and zest (zest in the mix juice as a dressing)
    teaspoon of allspice
    tablespoon plain flour
    handful of coriander (stalks in the mix leaves as with a salad /garnish)

    In the past I’ve used a this recipe too (which might be from an old Nigel Slater book)

    2 x 400g tins chickpeas
    garlic – 6 plump cloves, crushed
    ground coriander – 2 tsp
    ground cumin – 2 tsp
    1 medium onion, chopped
    plain flour – 2 tbs
    chopped parsley – 1 tbs

    Both nice you could use the latter one as a dip/spread rather than cook it – its practically a houmous mix. The mixed beans in the former one make the falafels a bit moister.

    I use Nigels, make loads and then freeze it in balls. Takes all of 5 minutes to make, you just throw stuff in a mixer.

    Second the Al-Fez (currently 99p according to My Supermarket) stuff it’s pretty nice. I used to get a nicer one which was Australian but haven’t got that one for a while.
