Coronation Chickpea Sandwich Filler Recipes

CORONATION CHICKPEAS

Steps:

• Heat a little oil in a pan, then add your chickpeas and curry powder, stirring to coat. Cook the chickpeas for about 5 minutes to help them soften. This isn't an essential step but I find it really helps the curry flavour deepen as well.
• Remove the chickpeas from the heat and mash about two-thirds of them with a fork, then stir in the lemon juice, creme fraiche and mango chutney, mashing more chickpeas as you need to so you have a nice creamy but chunky texture.
• Stir in the finely chopped red onion, coriander, and salt and pepper. Adjust your ingredients according to taste.
• Serve in an open-faced sandwich or bagel, or add to a salad for a nice spicy kick!

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a frying pan and add the chickpeas, onions and garlic with some seasoning. Gently cook for a few minutes until the onions begin to soften, before adding the sultanas and curry powder. Continue to cook, stirring, until the spices are fragrant. Leave to cool.
• Once cooled, lightly mash the chickpeas so that some still remain whole. Stir in the mango chutney, mayonnaise and season to taste.
• Spread the mixture liberally over the bread, adding lettuce and onion. Serve immediately.
