Cooking Steps
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add sesame seeds to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until fragrant, 2-4 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn.) Transfer to a plate.
- Meanwhile, thinly slice green onions.
- Cut cucumbers into 1/4-inch half-moons.
- Add mayo, rice wine vinegar, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar, half the soy sauce and half the sesame oil to a medium bowl. Whisk to combine.
- Add coleslaw mix and cucumbers. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Stir to combine.
- Add Honey-Garlic Sauce, remaining soy, remaining sesame oil and Gochujang to another medium bowl. Whisk to combine.
- Add 1 tbsp oil to the same pan, then falafel. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches for 4 ppl if needed, using 1 tbsp oil per batch.)
- Lightly smash falafel into smaller pieces, then pan-fry, tossing occasionally, until golden-brown, 4-8 min per side.
- Remove from heat, add spicy sweet glaze, then toss to coat.
- Wrap tortillas in paper towels.
- Microwave until tortillas are warm and flexible, 1 min. (TIP: You can skip this step if you don't want to warm the tortillas.)
- Divide tortillas between plates.
- Top with saucy falafel, then coleslaw.
- Sprinkle green onions and any remaining sesame seeds.
