Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 shallot, finely chopped
  • 1 clove/s garlic, finely chopped
  • ½ tsp cumin seeds
  • 2 classic vine tomatoes, roughly chopped
  • 400g can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 4 slice/s No.1 Seeded Sourdough Bread
  • 4 tsp Ottolenghi Green Harissa Paste
  • 1 tsp white wine or cider vinegar
  • ¼ x 25g pack coriander

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a saucepan and fry the shallot, garlic and cumin seeds for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the tomatoes and chickpeas, then cover and simmer for 5 minutes more.

  2. Meanwhile, toast the bread, then spread the harissa paste over it.

  3. Add the vinegar to the chickpeas and, using a potato masher, lightly crush them into the pan juices. Check the seasoning, roughly chop about 1 tbsp coriander leaves, then stir into the pan.

  4. Spoon the chickpeas over the toast and serve, scattered with more chopped coriander.

Cook’s tip

For a little heat, add some crushed chilli flakes to the chickpeas and, if liked, top each serving with a spoonful of Greek yogurt.
