Frequently Asked Questions About Frozen vegetable falafel
How do you cook frozen vegetable falafel in an air fryer?
Arrange frozen vegetable falafel in a single layer in the air fryer and cook using the temperature and time on the package. Turn the pieces partway through so they brown evenly, and make sure the centres are hot before serving.
Do you need to thaw frozen vegetable falafel before cooking?
No, frozen vegetable falafel can usually be cooked straight from frozen. Thawing may soften the texture and change the cooking time, so follow the package directions if they specify a different method.
How do you bake frozen vegetable falafel in the oven?
Spread frozen vegetable falafel on a lined baking tray with space between the pieces, then bake in a preheated oven according to the package directions. Turn them partway through for more even browning and check that they are hot inside.
Can you cook frozen vegetable falafel in a pan?
Yes, you can cook frozen vegetable falafel in a pan. Use a little oil over medium heat and turn the pieces regularly so they brown without burning; allow the centres to heat through. Use another method if the package advises against pan-cooking.
Is frozen vegetable falafel already cooked?
Some frozen vegetable falafel is partly cooked before freezing, while other products need thorough cooking. Do not assume it is ready to eat: follow the package instructions and cook it until hot all the way through.
What is frozen vegetable falafel made of?
Frozen vegetable falafel is a processed, ready-to-cook product, usually made with chickpeas, vegetables, herbs and seasonings. Recipes vary by brand, so the ingredient list is the reliable way to identify which vegetables or other ingredients a particular product contains.
Can you microwave frozen vegetable falafel?
You can microwave frozen vegetable falafel only if the package gives microwave instructions. Microwaving usually leaves it softer rather than crisp, so an oven, pan or air fryer is a better choice when you want a browned exterior.
What should you serve with frozen vegetable falafel?
Serve frozen vegetable falafel in pita or a wrap with salad, pickles and a sauce, or alongside hummus and grains for a fuller meal. Add fresh vegetables after cooking so they stay crisp next to the warm falafel.
What sauce goes best with frozen vegetable falafel?
Tahini-lemon sauce is a classic match for frozen vegetable falafel; tzatziki or a spicy sauce also works well. Add the sauce just before eating, especially in a wrap, to keep the falafel from becoming soggy.
How long does cooked frozen vegetable falafel keep in the fridge?
Cooked frozen vegetable falafel keeps for about 3–4 days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Refrigerate it promptly and reheat until hot throughout. Do not refreeze falafel that has thawed at room temperature.

What is Frozen vegetable falafel?
Frozen vegetable falafel is a ready-to-cook version of falafel: shaped patties or balls made from chickpeas (sometimes fava beans), vegetables, herbs and spices, then frozen. Falafel has roots in the Levant and is widely eaten across the Middle East, with recipes varying from place to place.
Once cooked, it is usually crisp outside and soft and fragrant inside. Serve it in pita or flatbread with salad and tahini sauce, or add it to a grain bowl or mezze spread; it also makes an easy meat-free lunch. It provides plant protein and fibre, with 7.5 g of fibre per 100 g. For a lighter meal, bake it and pair it with plenty of vegetables rather than relying on bread and rich sauces.
