Preparation:
About croutons
Combine the Colavita olive oil, oregano, salt in a small bowl and brush the inside of the tortilla. Cut into bites and place on a baking sheet. Bake at 400°F for 2-4 minutes or until croutons are golden brown.
Make the fennel yoghurt sauce: place all the ingredients for the sauce in a small bowl and mix well. You can also use a mixer.
Make the falafel: mix all the ingredients except the olive oil in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. If you're in a hurry, you can skip refrigerating, but the falafels will be a little more tender when cooked. Once chilled, shape into 11-12 small meatballs. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add enough Colavita olive oil to thoroughly coat the pan. Add the falafels and cook for a total of 4-5 minutes, flipping, until the underside is deep golden brown. Combine the lettuce, cherry tomatoes, avocado and croutons. Serve the falafels with the salad and yogurt sauce.
