Ingredients
Burger patties – makes 6

Herbs and spices as desired, I love cumin and dill!
Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees
1. In a bowl mix together the entire box and 240ml water. Add in herbs and spices as desired, I love paprika and turmeric with a bit of dill.
2. The directions say to deep fry falafels, no! I baked these.
3. Form into 6 large patty shapes put on a baking paper lined oven tray. Top with a sprinkle of extra virgin olive oil.
4. Bake for 20 minutes then flip them and bake for a further 20 minutes. Store leftovers in freezer
