Falafel rainbow sandwich

Falafel rainbow sandwich

The key to a successful sandwich is layers of texture, flavour and colour. This rainbow starts with harissa-coated red peppers and houmous, moves down through falafel, garlicky olives and parsley followed by black tahini, and finishes with tangy purple beetroot. It's vegan, too.

Ingredients

  • 465g jar roasted red peppers, drained
  • 2 tbsp harissa
  • 130g pitted green olives, finely chopped
  • ½ x 25g pack flat leaf parsley, leaves only, chopped
  • 1 small clove garlic, crushed
  • ½ lemon, juice
  • 4 tbsp black tahini
  • 6 tbsp non-dairy yogurt alternative
  • 250g pack baby beetroot in mild malt vinegar, sliced
  • 8 slices multigrain farmhouse batch
  • 200g pack falafel, each torn in half
  • 6 tbsp red pepper houmous

Method

  1. Tear the peppers into chunks and stir through the harissa. In another bowl, mix the olives, chopped parsley, garlic and lemon juice. In a third bowl, stir together the tahini and non-dairy yogurt alternative.

  2. Arrange the sliced beetroot in a single layer over 4 slices of bread, then spoon over the tahini mixture followed by the olive mixture. Add the falafel. Arrange the harissa peppers over the remaining 4 slices of bread, then spread on the houmous. Sandwich the halves together so the peppers are at the top of the rainbow before serving.
