Ingredients

  • 1 x 400g tin chickpeas, drained (240g when drained)
  • 2 spring onions, chopped
  • 2 Tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 Tablespoons dried fruit (raisins, chopped dried apricots, or a bit of both)
  • 1 teaspoon mild curry powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Few sprigs fresh coriander (cilantro) or parsley, chopped

Instructions

  • Add all of the ingredients to a small mixing bowl. Mix well to combine. If you have time, leave in the fridge for at least an hour. If you'd prefer to leave them overnight, transfer to an air-tight tub.
  • Serve chilled with toast, crunchy bread (e.g. baguette), or salad.

Notes

This dish is arguably even better prepared the day before you need it, and stored in an air-tight tub in the fridge to let the flavours develop.
