Chickpea smash

  • 1 tin chickpeas, drained, washed and dried (higher quality makes a difference - I love the giant chickpeas that come in a jar and are much plumper)

  • 2-3tbsp tbsp olive oil

  • Almonds, roughly chopped

  • 2 large handfuls fresh parsley / dill/ coriander /mint

  • ¼-1/2 red onion (or spring onions)

  • Squeeze of lemon or apple cider vinegar (approx 1-2 tbsp)

  • 1 tsp of honey

  • Salt and pepper

  • 2 tbsp dukkah spice (more if you like)

  • Any veg chopped! (cucumber, carrot, cherry toms, pepper etc)

  • Handful of cress / rocket

Start by lightly smashing the chickpeas in a large bowl with a fork -leaving around half still whole.

Add the remaining ingredients, taste and season well. Add more lemon/vinegar or honey if needed

Best served straight away, try with grilled meat, fish or halloumi. A great BBQ side salad!
