Ingrédients

  • 1 x 240g Merchant Gourmet Jumbo Chickpeas 
  • 2 blocks of silken tofu
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 150g cherry tomatoes 
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • ½ paprika
  • ½ tsp turmeric
  • A pinch of saffron (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, to garnish

Méthode

  1. Preheat oven to 200C. Optional: If using saffron, add a pinch of saffron, grind it in a pestle and mortar and add 2 tbsp of boiling water. 
  2. To a parchment paper lined baking tray, pour the Merchant Gourmet Jumbo Chickpeas straight from the pouch, along with cherry tomatoes, 2 cloves of crushed garlic, spices, salt, pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Add the saffron water if using and mix. Place it in the oven and bake for 20 mins.
  3. Meanwhile, wrap the silken tofu in a  cheesecloth and gently squeeze out excess water. You could do this with a sieve too. 
  4. Blend the drained tofu, 1 clove of garlic, lime juice, and salt to taste in a food processor or with a hand blender until smooth and creamy.
  5. Spread the whipped tofu mixture on a serving plate. Top with the spiced chickpea and blistered tomatoes and garnish with finely chopped fresh parsley and a dash of the spices.
  6. Scoop up with warm bread and enjoy!
