Toasted sesame Falafel Mezze

Method

1. Start by prepping your olive oil, lemon, garlic so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the leeks in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the falafel and let it sunday, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Stir in the arborio rice along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Add the vegetable stock and let it reduce until it just coats the back of a spoon.
6. Off the heat, brighten it up with a drizzle of olive oil and a final crack of pepper.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
