Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

  1. Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9/ air fryer 190C. Bring a large saucepan filled with salted hot water to a boil. Add the rice and turmeric to the pan and boil for 25-30 mins until cooked, then drain. Return to the pan and set aside.
  2. Cut the onion and peppers into 2cm squares. Cut the carrots into thin discs (peel optional). Transfer the veg onto a lined baking tray and toss with 1 tbsp oil, a pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Roast in the oven for 10 mins / air fryer 8 mins.
  3. Make the tagine; finely chop or crush the garlic. Heat a medium saucepan with 1 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Add the garlic, cook for 1 min, then add the apricots and harissa (to taste). Cook for 1 min, then add the chopped tomatoes and 100ml hot water. Bring to a boil then simmer for 8-10 mins, until thickened. Season with sea salt and black pepper.
  4. After 10 mins of roasting the veg, add the falafels to the tray. Roast for another 10 mins / air fryer 5-6 mins, until the veg is golden and the falafels are heated through. Roughly chop the coriander.
  5. Stir the roasted veg and half the coriander into the tagine. Gently stir in the cooked falafels. Simmer for a final 1-2 mins, adding a splash of water if it gets too thick. Season to taste with sea salt and black pepper.
  6. Serve the falafel tagine with the turmeric rice and scatter over the remaining coriander.
