Cooking Steps

Thinly slice the cucumber into matchsticks. Thinly slice the tomato into half-moons. Finely shred the cos lettuce (see ingredients). Thinly slice the red onion. Slice the lemon (see ingredients) into wedges. Use your hands to break each spinach falafel into quarters (don't worry if they crumble!).

In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, 5-6 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the balsamic vinegar, water and brown sugar and mix well. Cook until dark and sticky, 3-5 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl.

While the onion is cooking, combine the garlic aioli, Caesar dressing, 1/2 the grated Parmesan cheese and a splash of water in a small bowl. Season to taste.

Wipe out and return the frying pan to a mediumhigh heat with enough olive oil to coat the base of the pan. When the oil is hot, cook the falafels, tossing, until deep golden brown, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel. Season with salt and pepper.

Heat the mini flour tortillas in a sandwich press or on a plate in the microwave for 10 second bursts, until warmed through. In a medium bowl, add the tomato, cos lettuce and 1/2 the Caesar dressing. Toss to combine.

Take everything to the table. Build your tacos by spreading some Caesar dressing over each tortilla. Top with the dressed cos lettuce and tomato, the cucumber, falafels and caramelised onion. Garnish with the remaining grated Parmesan cheese. Serve with the lemon wedges.
