Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • For the crispy roasted chickpeas, place the drained chickpeas into a small ovenproof dish.
  • Cover with olive oil, season well with 2 big pinches of sea salt and black pepper, and add the garlic, cumin and paprika.
  • Stir to combine. Roast for 35–40 minutes, until the chickpeas are crispy. Set aside.
  • Place a large frying pan over medium heat and drizzle with oil. Add the kale, in batches, along with a pinch of salt and cook for 2–3 minutes until wilted.
  • To make the lemon tahini, pour the tahini into a small bowl and whisk in the lemon juice and garlic.
  • Gradually add 1 tablespoon of water at a time until the sauce is the consistency of thickened cream.
  • If the tahini ‘seizes’ and becomes very thick, push through by adding more water; it will eventually come back together to form a cohesive creamy sauce.
  • Season with sea salt and black pepper, and add more lemon juice if you like it lemony.
  • Combine the crispy chickpeas (and their cooking oil) with the kale, cucumber, half the pita chips and herbs.
  • To serve, drizzle over the lemon tahini and scatter over the remaining pita chips. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
