Foil-Wrapped Falafel Pita Rolls

Warm lavash is rolled tight around crushed falafel, crunchy lettuce, juicy tomato and bright pink pickled turnips, then wrapped in foil so it holds together to the last bite. A cup of garlic sauce and another of tahini on the side make this street food favorite easy to recreate at home.
