Instructions
- 1Preheat the oven to 200°C. Cut the bell pepper, zucchini, and onion into strips or cubes.
- 2Place these vegetables on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast them in the oven for 25–30 minutes until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- 3Slice the eggplant into slices about 1 cm thick. Heat a pan with a splash of olive oil and fry the eggplant slices on both sides until golden brown and tender. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle lightly with salt.
- 4Rinse the kidney beans and place them in a blender or food processor along with the halved cherry tomatoes. If desired, add a small splash of lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Blend until you have a coarse, creamy mixture.
- 5Heat some oil in a pan and sauté the bean-tomato mixture for a few minutes over medium heat until it thickens slightly and is heated through. Set aside.
- 6Fry or bake the falafel in a pan with a little oil or in the oven, according to the package instructions, until they are golden brown and crispy.
- 7Make the sauce: Mix the tahini with the yogurt, lemon juice, finely chopped garlic, a pinch of salt, and a splash of water until you have a creamy sauce. Add more water if needed to achieve the desired consistency.
- 8Briefly heat the wraps in a dry pan or in the microwave to make them pliable.
- 9Top each wrap with a layer of the warm kidney bean mixture, some arugula, roasted vegetables, falafel, and a few slices of fried eggplant.
