Falafel Burgers

I love falafel and it's so easy to make. We used to have a falafel hut in our town but it went to be replaced with all you can eat curry! Since then, I have been trying to recreate many of their imaginative falafel dishes. These are quick and easy to make you can count this as one of your five a day and they can be frozen as well.
