To prepare VBites Falafel, you can choose from several methods. For a crispy exterior, pan-frying them in a little oil over medium heat until golden brown on all sides is recommended. Alternatively, they can be baked in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through. Microwaving is also an option for a very quick meal, though the texture may be softer. Ensure they are heated through before serving to enjoy their best flavor and consistency.
