Deep fried foods are something that I rarely make at home due to the mess and prep-time, so I came up with this idea for making a quick falafel-ish sandwich, using the D'vora blend to deliver the flavor. My normal stand-in for the falafel is scrapple, which is a regional meat product, so I've included instructions for using tofu as well.
