Spicy chickpea salad

Spicy Chickpea Salad

Method

 
1. Heat a wok or large saucepan over a medium heat. Add the ground nut oil and toss in the garlic and red onions. Stir fry for about a minute, until the garlic gives off a nutty aroma.

2. Add the red wine vinegar while still on the heat - cook down and stir in the chilli flakes along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Take the pan off the heat and leave to cool before adding the olive oil and lime juice.

3. In a large bowl, tip in all the salad ingredients and spoon over the dressing. Leave the chickpeas to steep for an hour or so before serving at room temperature, either as a starter or as an accompaniment to roast meats.
