Selama Ashal’anore!

Everyone’s favorite vengeful Blood Elf mage, Kael’thas Sunstrider made his way into the Nexus a few months back. I’ve had a chance to play him several times in ranked, but honestly, I’m not super comfortable with his play style.

I’m more of a Jaina kind of gal (awwwwkward). However, Kael’thas is still a super fun hero to play! I mean, c’mon, FREE living bombs?! YOU GET A LIVING BOMB. AND YOU GET A LIVING BOMB. EVERYONE GETS A LIVING BOMB!

And it’s all thanks to those magical Verdant Spheres. Those Verdant Spheres are his signature accessory. A powerful fashion statement only worn by most haute blood mages!

I’ve immortalized these iconic artifacts in food form: edamame falafels! These falafels are packed full of nutrients which will surely keep you fueled during your quest for vengeance.

UNIT COMPOSITION

salt pepper 1 cup of tahini sauce* 1 tablespoon of cumin 1 tablespoon of coriander 3 tablespoons of olive oil 5 – 7 cloves of garlic, diced 1/4 cup of cilantro, roughly chopped 1/2 cup of parsley, roughly chopped 1 1/2 cups of edamame, shelled 1 onion, roughly diced 2 jalapeños, diced

*To make homemade tahini sauce, combine: tahini paste, garlic, lemon juice, water and salt.

BUILD ORDER

Prep time for this recipe is roughly 15 minutes. Cook time is about 35 minutes. This makes about 3 servings (about 3 falafels each).

OPENING

Put your onion, edamame, onion, cilantro, 1 jalapeño, and 1/4 cup of parsley in a food processor. Add in your salt, pepper, cumin, and coriander. Drizzle in 2 tablespoons of olive oil and pulse to combine. Continue until it forms a smooth paste. Remove and set aside.

MID GAME

Set your oven to 375° F. Line a pan or baking dish with parchment paper. Using a spoon, scoop out golf ball sized balls of the falafel dough. Roughly shape them into a sphere and drop them onto the parchment paper. Use a butter knife to smooth out the balls. Bake for 35 minutes or crispy. In order to keep them green, I decided not to flip them.

LATE GAME

Place tahini sauce, jalapeño pepper, 1 tablespoon of olive oil and your remaining parsley in a food processor. Process until it’s a smooth paste. Dip a spoon in the sauce and place the back of the spoon against a plate. Drag the spoon up and lift carefully to create a smear affect (or the flame for the verdant spheres). Place one of the falafels on top of the sauce. OPTIONAL: Sprinkle parsley over the plate. Eat!
